In 1840, a watermill of the type undershot mill on the Waalbeek was built on this site. This functioned as a corn mill and an oil mill. In 1858 a windmill was built next door, then called Koutermolen . Since then, the watermill has functioned solely as an oil mill, while the windmill was used for grinding corn. In 1886 the windmill was equipped with a gas engine, while in 1906 a steam engine was installed at the water mill, thus creating a steam oil mill.
