Nederland - Wijhe, Wijhese Molen
The Wijhese Molen has been constructed early 18th century. There are several inscriptions in various beams in the mill: the oldest one found reads: "GVB 1705". This makes the mill the oldest octagonal mill in the Dutch province of Overijssel. However the mill was probably not newly built, but relocated from a polder mill in Noord-Holland, which was demolished in those days.
In the course of the centuries the mill had several millers till it was handed over in 1977 to a foundation Stichting De Wijhese Molen. Commissioned by this foundation, the mill was restored in 1979. It has always had the function of a corn mill: grinding grain for farmers and bakers. Nowadays the Wijhese Molen is still equipped for this purpose with one pair of grinding stones (there used to be two in the past).
The ground floor of the mill houses a brasserie and art gallery.
