    Rumflether mill "Aurora"
    Beautifully renovated on the outside and furnished with attention to detail on the inside.

    The Rumflether mill, which is now fully functional again, was built in 1872 as a gallery Dutchman. It is still fully functional today with two grinding courses, oat crushers, compass rose and louvre blades.
    The mill was placed under monument protection in 1981 and can be visited by appointment.

      The mill is right on the main road. Apart from the mill, there isn't much to discover here.
