There used to be a small ground sailor on the site of the current mill. According to tradition, the construction of this mill was paid for with pennies, which was eventually corrupted into a dust mill via a duster mill.

De Stofmolen is a flour mill in Wijdenes in the Dutch municipality of Drechterland.

At the site of the current mill, there was first a small ground sail. According to tradition, the construction of this mill was paid for with pennies, which was eventually converted into a dust mill via a pollen mill.

The current mill was built in 1911 using Het Vette Schaap from Zaandijk. The mill was built near the old mill so that it could remain in use.

In 1924 an extra extension was built against the lower back side for a mechanical mill. The mill and mill remained in use until 1951, after which the milling company stopped, and the municipality bought the mill as a meeting room. From 1970, the mill is occasionally turned again, and later the mill was also made grindable.

The mill was shut down in 2001 due to its poor condition. The mill was completely restored in 2004/5 and has been grinding ever since.
The mill is owned by the municipality of Drechterland.
