    The Staverden corn mill has a very long history. The oldest mention of Staverden dates back to 1295. In that year Count Reynalt of Gelre received permission from the king to build a new town or fortress. The city was never built, but it was a courtyard with a mill. As early as 1307, the Count donated 20 pounds of interest to the Order of St. John of Jerusalem from proceeds from the court and mill of Staverden.

    The mill has been leased by several owners over the centuries. The last tenant is the Gardenbroek family in 1850. This family worked with the watermill until 1924. When the mill was shut down, the waterwheel with the mill barrel and the interior were immediately demolished. The part along the brook of the mill house has also been demolished. The Geldersch Landschap en Kasteelen (GLK) foundation became the owner of the Staverden estate in 1963.

      The nameless mill was demolished in 1923 and two years later the farm 'de Molen' was built next to it. The last private owner of Huis of Kasteel Staverden was Herman Theodoor s' Jacob, he was one of the founders of Geldersch Landschap in 1929. His heirs sold the castle and surrounding estate to this foundation in 1963.

        Behind the farm De Molen lies the visitors centre of Staverden. In this centre everyone can get information about Staverden.
