    This octagonal sawmill from 1771 is located directly on the North Holland Canal, on the southern edge of Alkmaar. The mill is still operational and forms a clear landmark in the flat, open landscape.

      Windmills - landmark in Holland.

      There used to be over 10,000 windmills in the Netherlands. In North Holland, many are still visible and some are still in operation. The power of windmills can be used differently. The Dutch either grind flour or keep their polders dry with them. Even though electric pumps have done the main work today, it is a matter of honor for every mill owner and a kind of duty to help with the perpetual drainage of the vast polder landscapes.

      In the area of Alkmaar are still thirteen picturesque old windmills. One is the 18th century "Piet Mill". The mill "De Gouden Engel" (The Golden Angel) in Koedijk was built in 2008. Here still today cereals are ground and sold.

        A beautiful name for the well-preserved windmill. It's worth a visit.
