    De Hoop is a belt mill in Horn (municipality of Leudal). The hexagonal mill was built in 1817, shortly after the abolition of compulsory milling during the French occupation. This was against the wishes of the local nobility, who believed they still had milling rights.

    When the German troops withdrew at the end of World War II, explosive charges were placed in the mill, but the Germans were surprised by shellfire and were unable to complete their task. This makes the mill one of the few mills in Limburg to survive the war without serious damage.

    Continuing south into Limburg, our route takes us ever further toward Horn, which, when we finally reach it, boasts two beautifully restored, but abandoned windmills with all their Dutch charm.

    And then...

    Roermond is in sight!
