Watermolen van Tielen, Protected watermill in Tielen, Belgium

The Watermolen van Tielen features a metal undershot wheel positioned on the Aa River, located at number 6 Watermolenstraat in Kasterlee municipality.

Records from 1428 indicate Kathelijne van Ranst-de Pane owned this watermill, which collapsed in winter 1565 due to ice formations on the Aa River.

The mill house, constructed in 1681, displays characteristic architecture with an arch-shaped door and maintains a partial straw-covered roof structure.

The watermill received modifications including a water diversion channel from the Aa River to ensure continuous water flow for proper operation.

The current metal drive mechanism and water wheel originate from a different watermill located in Chastre, in Belgium's Namur province.

Location: Kasterlee

Address: Watermolenstraat 6
