      The Bergzicht windmill is located in Gassel, municipality of Grave, province of North Brabant. It owes its name to the view that the mill hill used to offer of the Mookse berg, which is now hidden from view by tree growth. The mill itself is hardly noticeable in the landscape due to the same vegetation.

      The mill was built to replace a mill from 1805 that was burned down in 1814 by the retreating French troops. It is an octagonal belt mill from 1817 on a stone base; the superstructure is made of wood and was originally covered with roofing felt. Due to the lack of diagonal connections (field crosses) in the octagon, the roofing felt kept cracking and that is why the wooden octagon was covered with thatch during a restoration in 1963. It is the only remaining pure Brabant octagonal mill.

        In the past, bark was also ground, now only corn. The functioning corn mill is now operated by volunteers and can be visited on the 1st and 3rd Thursday of the month, from 10:00 to 15:00.
