ok, so i am a wood bore. and it is my job, but i was not expecting this. we had booked a tour of windmills, clogs, biscuits etc.. and we had no idea that this was on the tour. a fascinating day to see how this revolution in utilising wind power to run a sawmill, and its impact not only only dutch history but that of northern europe. the sheer beauty of the mill working is a delight. enjoy.

The original mill was built in 1680 and demolished in 1942. Between 2005 and 2007, a replica of the mill at the Zaanse Schans, between the mills “De Zoeker” and “De Bonte Hen”. The construction of the replica was based on detailed drawings Anton Sipman had made before the original mill was demolished.
