Lageveense Molen

The Lageveense Molen dates from 1890 after the previous windmill on this spot burnt down. The mill had to be moved twice: in 1657 because of digging of the canal from Leiden to Haarlem and in 1842 because of the laying of the railway between Leiden and Haarlem. It pumped the Lageveense Polder dry on its own until 1990, now only on a voluntary basis.
