    At the Slingerbos at the harbor there is a 10 meter high windmill. This is not a scale model but a working flour mill. The white beard reads 'WINDLUST 1935' in black letters. In that year, the local millwright J. van de Hamer built this corn mill to demonstrate his inventions to customers.



    In the Second World War, the mill was used to generate electricity. This allowed the owner to listen to the radio and operate electric lights. In 1955 the mill got its current place on the shore near the harbor along a cycle path. When a storm blew down the mill in 1990, the municipality restored it.



    Mill Windlust is ready to grind and can be visited when the mill is running and by appointment.
