    Hiking

    The Grote Molen is a water mill on the Demer, located at Schulensebaan 14 in the Belgian municipality of Lummen. This undershot mill functioned as a crushing mill, sawmill and corn mill.

    The mill was already expanded with a hemp crushing section before 1844. This expansion was located on the other side of the Demer, on the territory of Schulen. The crushing mill was converted into a sawmill shortly after 1875, which was continued with mechanical drive in 1929, but was destroyed during the Second World War.
