    The mill is located on the Kukkelberg, and is 102.5 meters above sea level. It was built in 1857, after a number of watermills on the Mombeek were closed. In 1908 the mill was already dismantled. After that, a horse mill was located in the mill hull for a while to thresh the grain of the Hoogveld Castle. The fuselage was also shortened. What remained gradually crumbled.



    From 1966, the hull was re-bricked and crenellated on the rim. The hull was furnished as a dancing. The mill mountain was excavated, so that the buttressed passages leading to the mill were now exposed.



    From 2004-2005 the mill was converted into a house. The battlements were removed.
