Scherpenbergmolen, Westmalle

The Müllenbruck brothers built this stone windmill, a round mountain mill, in 1843. It was used as a flour mill until the late 1940s. In 1985 he was again made to grind. The Scherpenberg mill can be visited every Sunday afternoon from 2 pm to 5 pm. This mountain or belt mill was popularly called De Stenen Molen to distinguish it from the wooden mill on the Oude Molenstraat, which was demolished around 1942. The original name Scherpenbergmolen refers to the toponym of its location. After various restorations, the stone Scherpenbermolen is back in top condition and does what it always did: grind grain into flour. The millers are happy to welcome you every Sunday from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. You can also visit the various attics where you will receive an expert explanation from one of the millers. You can enjoy Kempense outdoor fun on the last Sunday of August under the rotating windmill blades.
