De Huisman, Spice mill in Zaanse Schans, Netherlands
De Huisman stands on Kalverringdijk, featuring an eight-sided hood, wooden structure, and three pairs of millstones that grind various spices and mustard seeds.
Built in 1786 as a snuff mill, De Huisman was relocated to its current location in 1955, combining elements from two mills and a paper warehouse.
The mill maintains traditional Dutch spice grinding methods, producing Zaanse mustard that has become integral to regional culinary traditions.
Visitors can explore the spice shop without charge, while access to the operational windmill requires a ticket available at the Zaans Museum entrance.
The grinding mechanisms inside De Huisman originate from Het Indisch Welvaren spice mill, preserving historical equipment within its renewed structure.
