Nederland - Krommenie, De Woudaap
The exact year of construction the octagonal polder windmill De Woudaap is not known, but on 14 March 1651 a permit was granted for the embankment of the peat bog area the Woudpolder, then called De Wouden. De Woudaap must have been built in or shortly after 1651. After construction of the mill the excess water of the polder could be pumped away and the meadows could be put to better use.
In 1864, De Woudaap was given a screw instead of a scoop wheel, which increased the capacity of the mill. The polder mill was kept in operation professionally until the year 2002. With the death of the last miller in that year this came to an end. In 2008 a new electric pumping station was built, which takes care of the water management of the polder.
De Woudaap itself is nowadays put into operation on a voluntary basis. The mill is fully operational and will contribute to the drainage whenever it is possible or necessary. The mill can handle up to 70m³ of water per minute.

A super narrative. It's amazing to think that this beautiful mill in still in use after all this time!
Jaap van 't Veen club has replied to Peter Castell clubBonne journée Jaap !
The inserts are beautiful and give us a real sense of perfection and savoir faire.
Thank you for the note Jaap.
Blijf gezond Jaap
The panoramic view gives a good idea of the region and of the kind of "lighthouse" that the mill constitutes. Superb, really.
PS: Ik heb mijn andere foto in 's-Graveland (waar je om gevraagd had) nu ook op de kaart gezet Jaap.
Groet, Christien.
Freundliche Grüße, einen schönen Sonntag und bleib gesund.
