Volmolen, Epen, Historic watermill in Epen, Netherlands
The Volmolen stands between the Geul river and a mill stream, featuring traditional masonry walls and a blue-tiled gabled roof.
Built in 1844 as a gristmill, the structure received a Francisturbine upgrade in 1914, replacing its original water wheel mechanism.
The mill demonstrates traditional grain processing techniques, preserving industrial heritage methods from the 19th and 20th centuries.
Visitors can explore the mill during guided tours every first and third Saturday from April through November between 11:00 AM and 4:00 PM.
The mill complex includes a separate bakery building constructed from local breccia stone, positioned across the stream for fire safety.
