Cabauw - Middle mill (Seesaw mill )

The middle (or second mill) built in 1773, as a watermill. The original mill at this place was built in 1454, but was demolished in 1598 to make way for a stronger mill with more capacity. This mill was destroyed by fire in 1772, after which the current mill is built. The mill has undergone restorations in 1998 and 2007/2008 but is able to grind again now. The mill is in the middle of an open polder area.
