The Zeldenrust grain and hulling mill in Dokkum is an octagonal post mill with a span of 22 meters. Until 1861, the Driepijpstermolen (three-pipe star mill) stood on this site, but it burned to the ground. The millwright F. van Delden built a windmill for pellets, rye, and wheat for 9,400 guilders, commissioned by J.M. Bakker of Olderker. Miller enjoyed his new mill for many years: he lived to be 81 and died in 1912. After his death, his sons continued to run the business until 1921. After the millers Lukas Jans Graver and Jan Boomgaardt, the mill passed into the possession of Joannes van Tilburg from Nieuw Weerdinge in 1952, who named it Zeldenrust. In order to compete with the grain mills, the sails were fitted with ten-have valves and fauël booms, allowing the Zeldenrust to operate faster and more frequently.
