Molen van Schoonoord, Windmill in Schoonoord, Netherlands.
The Molen van Schoonoord stands as an octagonal smock mill with a three-story brick base and a thatched roof reaching a height of 5.50 meters.
Originally built in 1854, the mill was reconstructed in 1903 after storm damage, using parts from an oil mill previously located in Middelstum, Groningen.
The mill represents the agricultural traditions of Drenthe province, where grain milling played an essential role in sustaining local communities through generations.
The mill contains one pair of millstones and features Common sails spanning 18 meters, operated through a tailpole and winch system for precise wind direction control.
The structure maintains its complete height and stage despite being non-operational since 1952, with only the cap and main framework surviving a 1978 partial dismantling.
