De Kroon, Tower mill in Klarendal, Arnhem, Netherlands.

De Kroon rises as a five-story tower mill with four sails spanning 22.90 meters, equipped with the Fok system on their leading edges.

Built in 1870 to replace an earlier structure named De Hoop, this windmill received national monument status as a Rijksmonument in October 1965.

Three pairs of millstones inside De Kroon maintain the traditional Dutch milling practices, producing flour for the local community.

Visitors can explore the mill during regular opening hours on Fridays from 13:00 to 16:00 and Saturdays from 11:00 to 15:00.

The windmill contains a cast iron windshaft manufactured by Gieterij Hardinxveld in 1997, incorporating modern elements into its historical structure.
