A building to understand
First look at the mill as a whole and ask how the various parts relate to milling. A tour can help you see the connection between building and machinery. Do not assume there will be a working demonstration.
A standstill calls for enquiries
The mill was reported as standing still because its sail stocks (roeden) are being replaced. That need not rule out a visit, but it makes it necessary to ask about access and works in advance. Have it confirmed which parts you can see on your chosen day.
Choosing the right afternoon
De Hollandsche Molen lists Saturday afternoons in odd-numbered weeks and visits by appointment. Local visitor information also mentions a blue pennant as a signal that the mill is open. Use these indications as a reason to get in touch, not as a guarantee for an unconfirmed visit.
Before you go
Confirm time and accessibility in advance. The visitor address is Veerweg 1 in Nieuw-Vossemeer, not a museum address in Steenbergen town.
