Veldkamps Meul'n

This mill owes its name to the Veldkamp family. They owned the mill for many years; it was built in 1855 as a grain and husking mill. Since then, the Veldkamp’s Meul’n has been through quite a lot.

The mill was severely damaged by storms on no fewer than three occasions: in 1895, 1972 and 1976. Nowadays, the mill is owned by the local council. Most of the mill’s grinding mechanism has been lost, but it still has two pairs of millstones. Thanks to a volunteer miller, the mill can still be seen in operation on a regular basis.
