      The Wingerdse Molen in the Dutch town of Bleskensgraaf is a seesaw mill of which the year of construction is unknown. This polder mill was probably built in 1513. The tube is from 1624. In 1872 the mill was raised by bricking up the field walls, so that a greater flight could be obtained. At 28.20 m, the Wingerdse Molen has the largest flight of all Dutch seesaw mills. The original paddle wheel was replaced in 1955 by an auger. In 1996, among other things, the shelling of the roof and the rafters were renewed. In 2006, two reed beds on the lower tower were renewed. Mill is inhabited.
