The American wind engine was used for years for pumping away superfluous polder water. A few are still grindy

The Edens wind engine is an American wind engine that stands almost half a kilometer southwest of the village on the other side of the Bolswardertrekvaart. The mill was built around 1925. It is of the Record type and has an eighteen bladed pinwheel. The wind engine is also not open to the public.
