Water Mill at Gennep, Historical watermill in Gestel, Netherlands
The Genneper Watermolen stands along the Dommel river with its single operational wheel grinding grain through water power mechanics at Genneperweg 143.
First documented in the 13th century, this mill started as a donation to Postel Abbey in Mol, Belgium, and underwent reconstruction after a fire in 1587.
Vincent van Gogh created three oil paintings and one watercolor of this mill in 1884, with one piece now displayed at Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza in Madrid.
Visitors can access the mill on Wednesdays from 12:00 to 16:00, Saturdays from 13:00 to 16:00, and Sundays from 12:00 to 16:00 throughout the year.
The mill functioned as a banmolen, requiring local peasants to process their wheat exclusively at this location under historical feudal regulations.
