De Reiger, Polder windmill in Nijetrijne, Netherlands
The De Reiger windmill stands at 52.8524433 latitude and 5.9187486 longitude in the Rottige Meente area, with sails measuring 20.10 meters in width.
Built in 1871 by Jan Hernanus Engelmoer, the De Reiger windmill operated until 1958, when its Archimedes screw mechanism stopped functioning permanently.
The mill obtained Rijksmonument status in February 1967, marking its role in Dutch agricultural engineering and water management traditions.
Located at Veendijk 4 in postal code 8481JC, this former water drainage mill now functions as a holiday residence for visitors.
Originally known as Molen №5, this grondzeiler type mill received its current name De Reiger only after its transformation into a vacation property.
