De Hoop, Tower windmill in Stiens, Netherlands

The De Hoop windmill stands as a traditional Dutch tower structure with rotating sails, positioned within the agricultural landscape of northern Netherlands.

Built during the agricultural expansion period of the Netherlands, this windmill demonstrates the engineering methods used for grain processing in the region.

The windmill maintains traditional milling practices through regular demonstrations, preserving knowledge passed down through generations of Dutch millers.

Visitors can observe the internal wooden mechanisms and grain grinding process during specific operating hours when weather conditions permit mill operation.

De Hoop contains original milling equipment and continues to produce flour using traditional wind power methods throughout the year.
