Nederland - Winterswijk, Den Helder

Nederland - Winterswijk, Den Helder
Watermill Den Helder is a former double undershot corn and oil watermill on the course of the Boven-Slinge near Winterswijk. The watermill is a Dutch national monument.

The earliest known mention of the mill dates back to 1303 when it was part of Havezate Plekenpol (a manor or fortified farmhouse). For many years, the mill was called Plekenpolsemolen. At the end of the 19th century, the mill came into the possession of "Jan Helder" and was named Den Helder ever since.

In 1922, the mill was sold by auction to “Derk Jan Berenschot”, owner of another water mill nearby. He bought the mills to eliminate competition for his own mill. From 1923, therefore, the mills are no longer in operation. An ice cream parlour was established in the oil mill and the corn mill became a cafe after a conversion in 1934.

From the 1970s in the last century, the water mills slowly fell into disrepair. A thorough restoration was completed in 2016 and the watermill is once again operating, albeit for electricity generation. The two buildings have since been used as homes.

A fascinating series Jaap..............and another example of the many old mills in your country. I love the way they always seems to be restored to some sort of use.........even like these, a café and residential buildings..........much better than knocking them down and building something new.

I like all four images but especially the main image and the last PiP for the superb reflections. I like the boats too..........it must be a lovely place to explore, especially on the water.
