De Otter, Wooden sawmill in Gillis van Ledenberchstraat, Netherlands.
De Otter features common sails spanning 19.50 meters and operates through a tailpole and winch system for processing wood materials.
Built in 1631, this wooden structure remains the last survivor of numerous sawmills that operated between the Kostverlorenvaart canal and the Singelgracht.
The mill received protection as a Rijksmonument in 1977, marking its status as a vital element of Dutch industrial heritage.
Visitors can access the mill on Tuesdays from 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., reaching it via bus line 18 to G. van Ledenberchstraat.
Recent urban development has blocked wind access to the mill, leading to ongoing legal disputes about its potential relocation to Uitgeest.
