Tips

This polder mill was built in 1830 and drained the Huis ter Doespolder.
The mill suffered storm damage in 1949, after which the drainage of the polder was taken over by the adjacent Achthovense Molen.
After that, the mill fell into disrepair.
In 1960 a demolition permit was even issued for this mill, but in 1963 the Doeshofmolen was bought by the Rijnlandse Molenstichting, which restored the mill in a rotatable manner.
It took until 2004 for the Doeshofmolen to be able to grind again.

The mill is now regularly used as an auxiliary and emergency pumping station and has the status of a national monument.
