Torenmolen van Gronsveld, Tower mill in De Heeg, Netherlands.

The Torenmolen van Gronsveld stands five stories tall with thick brick walls, featuring a spiral staircase and mechanical sack hoist system inside.

Built in 1623 under the direction of Count Joest Maximilian van Bronckhorst, the mill underwent modifications in 1766 when a tapering section was added.

The mill represents traditional Dutch engineering as one of five remaining tower mills in the Netherlands, listed among the top 100 national monuments.

Visitors can find the operational windmill at Rijksweg 90 in Maastricht, where it continues to demonstrate traditional grain grinding methods.

This structure holds the position of being the southernmost windmill in the Netherlands and maintains its status as the oldest mill in Limburg province.
