    The Vogelenzang mill is a round stone mill located on the Molendreef in Lieshout in the Dutch province of North Brabant. This mill is situated in a very rural area. The current miller of the Vogelenzang mill is Pieter Sanders who lives in the white house near the mill. The Vogelenzang mill was drawn several times by Vincent van Gogh around 1880. This mill is also part of the award-winning Vincent van Gogh cycle route.

    This belt mill was built in 1819 and is used as a corn mill. It was built to replace the post mill that was blown down in 1816. The current mill contains a number of parts of that post mill. It is one of the first stone mills built in the Peelland Quarter. The mill is probably the work of a South Holland millwright. The bricks were baked on site from loam that was obtained from a fen located behind the mill.

      In addition to its use as a corn mill, it was also used as an oil mill and possibly as a hulling mill, which is exceptional in North Brabant. Until 1964 it was used by private millers, today it is operated by volunteer millers.
