    Mill “De Pauw” on the Nauerna canal. Only 20 km from the center of Amsterdam you can visit the only working hemp beater in the world. This typical Dutch windmill was used for centuries to beat hemp fibers softly. Ships with ropes and sails made of these fibers crossed the world's oceans. In earlier centuries the Dutch landscape was strewn with hemp beaters, today only “De Pauw” remains.
