The Antonius Abtkerk is a late Gothic Roman Catholic church. The oldest part, the tower, dates from the 15th century. A staircase tower was added later. The vault of the tower rests on sculpted corbels. The nave of the church was built after the fire of 1498, when the Gelderland troops destroyed the village. The baptismal chapel was built a little later. The single-nave nave was provided with a transept in 1610. At that time, the existing choir was also enlarged. In 1771, a rococo stucco vault was added above the nave, provided with emblems. A complete restoration of the church took place in 1835. The most important work of art is the tomb of coloured marble for Engelbert II van Immerzeele and his wife Hélène de Montmorency. They died in 1652 and 1649 respectively. The artwork dates from 1650 and is by Artus Quellinus. Although it was originally intended for the St. Paul's Church in Antwerp, it was placed in the church of Bokhoven in 1651. Source: Wikipedia

The Vismarkt is the central meeting place in the fortress where everything comes together - namely living, business and recreation. With the entrepreneurs and residents we see it as the stage of the fortress. A cozy, hospitable and green square that Heusdenaren are proud of.

The place that van Hout has occupied in the community since 1908 (initially as a clog factory) is indispensable. For a long time it was the only veneer factory in the Netherlands and then grew into an international timber company, mainly in tropical hardwood from Gabon, Siberia and Suriname. The timber factory symbolised the solidarity and can-do mentality of Mill and provided a large part of the employment in the region for many years. The now deceased former director Toon van Hout was responsible for the construction of the chimney in 1943. When the chimney reached 55 metres, the masons came to him to report that there were still bricks left. Uncle Toon said: ‘‘Here are some food stamps and put the rest on it too.’’ With those food stamps the masons were able to get two loaves of rye bread from Pijpers’ baker. ‘Well, it was war, wasn’t it?’’ Source and more information: kliknieuwsdemaasdriehoek.nl

The stone chimney on the former site of the Van Hout wood factory in Mill has been defining the skyline of Mill for years and stands out because of the life-size letters "van Hout". "At van Hout, even the tower is made of wood", was a common joke in Mill and is therefore called 'the biggest liar of Mill'. source: ontdekmill.nl
