Tips

Dominiek Van Dooren

This small, open post mill, on high dice, is undoubtedly one of the oldest and smallest mills in East Flanders. The year of construction is probably situated in the first half of the 14th century. The year 1154, as sometimes mentioned, is rather doubtful.
The wooden standard mill was part of the possessions of the Saint Bavo's Abbey in Ghent and was already mentioned in 1388, following a restoration. In 1566, hedge sermons were held by Protestants on the mill dam. The mill has been protected since 1944. The miller's house, a typical small and low house, since 1982. In order to protect the remaining wind catch, the surrounding plots have been protected as landscape since 1977. On 18 November 1999, the province of East Flanders purchased the windmill.

This is one of the smallest windmills in East Flanders and once owned by the Ghent Sint-Pietersabdij. The province made the mill turn and grind again.
