Molen De Bloem

Molen De Bloem, also called De Blom, is an octagonal top porter with scaffolding, originally built in 1768 and equipped as a flour mill. Until 1878 this mill stood on the redoubt at the Raampoort, on the stronghold of Rijkereoord, north of the passage through the city wall. The Rijkerbolwerk was originally called De Bloem (Bloempunt). Like most flour mills at the time, it was a post mill, which was replaced in 1768 by the current octagonal mill.
We often ride on rollerblades along this beautiful mill!
