    Den Haller is probably the oldest still existing watermill in the Netherlands. The mill on the Diepenheimse Molenbeek can be found in Diepenheim (municipality of Hof van Twente). It is an undershot mill that is equipped as a corn mill. The oldest known mention of the mill dates from 1169. In 1331, Jan van Diest, bishop of Utrecht, bought the mill as part of the lordship of Diepenheim. In the 18th century, Den Haller was owned by the city of Deventer. The city council sold the mill to Jan Hallers in 1870. The name of the mill is derived from this name. In 1913, the then owner donated the mill to the then municipality of Diepenheim. The Den Haller Foundation has been the owner since 2007.

    The mill contains three pairs of millstones and a grindstone, which are driven by water power. The mill pond (mill stable or weier) was constructed in 2006 to improve the water supply.

    The mill is open to the public several days a week.

    The water mill is located in the area of the protected village area.

      Because of the beautiful Twente Landscape with castles and Twente / Saxon farms.
