De Distilleerketel, Grain windmill in Delfshaven, Netherlands.
De Distilleerketel stands 11 meters tall in Rotterdam's historic district, featuring a stone cylindrical structure with rotating cap and wooden blades.
The original mill from 1727 ground malt for local distilleries until 1899, when fire destroyed it, leading to reconstruction efforts in different locations.
De Distilleerketel represents traditional Dutch milling methods, with its machinery continuing to process grains using wind power techniques from past centuries.
Visitors can access the mill shop at Voorhaven 210 to purchase flour products and take guided tours of the operational mechanisms.
The mill's deck provides views of both historical Delfshaven's port area and Rotterdam's modern city center, spanning three centuries of urban development.
