This mill is still in operation and can be visited. On Saturday and Thursday morning, flour and other baking products (including delicious gingerbread) can be bought in the shop next to the mill.

The De Roode Leeuw windmill is a historic smock mill in Gouda, built in 1727 and rebuilt in 1771. Originally a corn mill, it is now a working monument that no longer grinds. The mill has been restored several times, and until early 2025, it housed a shop selling artisanal products. It is located on the Vest, near Gouda's old town center.
