RE: Yet another old watermill in The Netherlands (starting to feel like the tourist board)
Large, old technology like your watermill is so interesting. I'm glad people keep some of these going. Are they actively milling grain here, or is it hooked up to produce power?
The oil mill was shut down, but the grain mill and sawmill are still operational, though not commercially, mostly for demonstration purposes (the products are used, though, not thrown away). The same goes for the grain and oil mills of the Oostendorper Watermolen. The Haarmühle has had a generator in it since 2000 and produces electrical power.
Very neat -- all three posts. Thanks.
