From this point you have a beautiful view of the mill and the polder. If you look closely you can see old patterns of peat extraction in the polder. The Hoekermolen was built in 1874 on the site of an earlier mill, which burned down that year after lightning struck. The mill was restored around 1963. In 2005/2006 the mill was thoroughly restored, with a longer screw being installed to also cope with the lowered polder level. (source Wikipedia)
