    A tower windmill (Dutch torenmolen, English tower (wind)mill, French moulin tour) is a windmill with a cylindrical, tower-like mill house made of stone and a fixed cap (later with a rotating hood), as it was in the 13th and 14th centuries was built on castle walls (Burg Hammerstein), fortifications and ramparts (Zons, Cologne - Bottmühle, Ulrepforte and others -, Wijk bij Duurstede near Utrecht, Netherlands). On the Lower Rhine, these fortress mills, which are more common there, are also called Bären(mühlen) because of their squat design.
