De Oudkerkermolen, Polder windmill in Aldtsjerk, Netherlands.
De Oudkerkermolen features an octagonal wooden structure with a stone base and a reed-covered roof, operating as a ground-level windmill for water management.
The windmill was constructed in 1864 by local farmers to manage water levels across 160 hectares of the Oudkerker polder region.
This Rijksmonument designation from 1972 recognizes the windmill's role in Dutch water management traditions and agricultural development in Friesland.
The mill remains operational under the supervision of millers Eeuwe de Vries and Thom van Hijum, who offer scheduled tours for visitors.
Following modifications in 1987, the windmill received a dedicated pumping circuit that allows it to continue its water management functions independently.
