Tips

The Groeneveld mill is part of the picture of Schiplouden. There used to be a wooden mill here, which burned down because lightning struck. The current mill was then built in 1719. The Groenveldse mill is a so-called water mill. There were many of these in the Midden-Delfland region, but few have survived. The Groeneveld mill survived!

Wikipedia: The Groeneveldse windmill in Schipluiden was built in 1719 to replace an earlier wooden windmill, which burned down after a lightning strike. The mill drains, together with a mortar pump, the Groeneveldse polder. Until 1960, the polder was drained exclusively using wind power. After the construction of a pumping station, the mill was shut down. The paddle wheel that raises the water 1.90 m was equipped with an electric motor in the early 1980s, which is still functioning.

The mill, just like the church tower of 't Woudt, towers above everything and can be seen from afar.
