Nederland - Groet, Groetermolen

The Groetermolen (Groeter Mill) is a polder mill built in 1890, after its predecessor burned down a year earlier due to a lightning strike. The mill is a so-called ground sailer. Until 1977 the windmill was used exclusively for draining the Groeterpolder. In that year an electric pump was installed, as a result of which the windmill was no longer used. Today, both the windmill and the electric pumping station ensure the drainage of the 220 ha Groeterpolder. In 2020 the Groetermolen made over 933.000 rotations.

Dat fleurige weer was wel steenkoud.
Helemaal daar in de polder met een ijzige oostenwind.
