The Sint Lindertmolen (Sint Lindert Mill) was built between Heel and Panheel as an open standard mill with the permission of Countess Douairière de Horion in 1790. It was relocated to the edge of the Beegderheide in 1856. In 1928, the mill's four open legs were covered with round walls and covered with asphalt paper roofs. In 1965, miller Niessen installed an electric hammer mill in his barn, and in 1969, a major renovation took place, making it possible to grind in the mill again. In 1991, the last miller, Sjeng Niessen, died. In 1997, it became apparent that the mill's standard had been severely affected by the colorful rodent bait. The municipality of Heel purchased the mill, and a comprehensive renovation followed. The mill was dismantled, and the enormous frame was renewed. The pot rods and wooden tail were replaced with welded steel. As many original parts as possible were treated and cleaned. The mill reopened in 2000. Two years later, a new mill barn was built and converted into a reception and information room. The mill then received its name: Sint Lindertmolen. Sint Lindert, or Leonardus, was a hermit in the sixth century. He is a folk saint who cured all kinds of illnesses and pests, such as infertility, rheumatism, and livestock diseases in horses and cattle. He was venerated in Beegden until the 1950s.

The mill was built at Panheel sometime after 1790 as an open post mill. The base was therefore not walled and covered as it is now. In 1856 the mill was moved to the edge of the Beegderheide where it now stands. The stone walls were installed in 1928 and the roof was covered with asphalt paper. In 1965 the mill was decommissioned and milling was carried out using an electric hammer mill. The mill was restored in 1969, after which it continued to grind occasionally. In 1997 it was discovered that the colorful rodent beetle had seriously damaged the woodwork. The municipality of Heel bought the mill and thoroughly restored it, after which it was reopened in 2000.
