Berenschot, Watermill in Woold, Netherlands.

The Berenschot watermill stands along the Boven Slinge river, featuring a wooden wheel measuring 4.40 meters in diameter and 0.86 meters in width.

Built in 1652 by Adriaen van Eerde, the mill started as a combined establishment with both a gristmill and an oil mill across the brook.

The mill maintains traditional grain processing methods using sixteen artificial millstones and wooden gearing systems that demonstrate historical milling techniques.

Visitors can explore the mill at Wooldseweg 74 in Woold, which now includes a restaurant serving local specialties and regional products.

The mill underwent modifications in 2015 to incorporate a fish passage while preserving its historical elements and continuing its grinding operations.
