Cycling along the Waal is very beautiful. I have cycled a lot along the Linge and the Maas, but this one certainly deserves to be in that list too. Also a lot of walkers, so watch out and give each other space!

1903: The mill was rebuilt using an octagonal frame from a Groningen mill. The mill was the former Faber oil mill, later Bakker, which was transferred from Middelstum in 1903 and rebuilt in Schoonoord for J.G. (Jakob Gerrit) de Vries (1835-1916). According to the records of the Wouda sailmaker's shop in Meppel, sails were rented for this mill from 1912 to 1932 for a 68-foot wing and sails for a 72-foot wing. No sails were rented between 1913 and 1929. 1937: The trestle was replaced. The trestle height is 5.50 m. 1945: The mill was decommissioned. 1946: The mill was fitted with streamlined noses from Wetsinge. 1949: The mill remained in operation until 1949. 1952: Last repaired and put back into operation. 1978: Finally stopped working. By the time of the dismantling in 1978, the internal workings were already missing. One of the sails was clearly second-hand and far too heavy for this mill. During the dismantling in 1978, it was found to be more or less wedged in the shaft head. Turning was impossible: the cutting torch had to be used.
