This traditional windmill is located in the village of Grijpskerke, Zeeland, The Netherlands.

It's called 'Het Welvaaren van Grijpskerke' (The Prosperity of Grijpskerke) and was built in 1801 after its predecessor was blown over by a very heavy storm. Due to the attached house, this mill can only be turned in a limited direction. The mill is no longer capable of grinding grain as well, so the title is in fact a bit misleading, 😁 .
