Historical interpretation:
The mill was built in 1696 and served as a corn mill. There was a bakery next door. It was built into the rampart to make it invulnerable to the ammunition of the time. After all, windmills showed greater vulnerability and flour mills were necessary for food supply in times of siege. However, this mill did not work so much on the tides, because the water wheel was usually driven by excess polder water, which was then discharged to the canal.
