Nederland - Eibergen, Mallumsche Molen

The Mallumsche Molen is a breastshot mill on the Berkel. A predecessor of the current mill is mentioned as early as 1424. In the 17th century, there were two mills on both banks of the river Berkel: a corn and a paper mill. In the 18th century, there is talk of a corn and oil mill. The corn mill, which burned down in 1746, was rebuilt two years later. The oil mill also burned down in 1755 and was rebuilt, but was demolished in 1917.

The corn mill remained in operation until 1943 and became the property of the foundation De Mallumsche Molen in 1948 (since 2004 Stichting Eibergse Molens). This foundation started restoration that year; thirty years later, the mill was restored again.

The Mallumsche Molen almost always has sufficient water and is still regularly used by volunteer millers.

As usual, a fine trio of shots here documenting this mill. I had never heard of a 'breatshot mill' before and so after more research am educated.
A great place to explore with the camera as you admirably demonstrate.

Best Wishes and HFF. -enjoy the weekend. Herb

Interesting Jaap'....... I guess that ..'breastshot' ..is that the water is introduced to the wheel at the 'midway' point.. rather than nearer to the top.. // Have a fine weekend - keep well and a ''HFF'' to you from Dj.. UK.
