Molen Het Noorden | Natuurmonumenten

Molen Het Noorden is a historic kantige molen (ground-level windmill) built in 1878 in Oosterend on Texel. Originally designed as a polder mill to drain the Het Noorden polder, this traditional Dutch windmill has been restored to working condition in a closed circuit, though it no longer operates for its original purpose. The mill’s distinctive design reflects Texel’s agricultural heritage, offering a tangible connection to the island’s engineering past. Located at Stuifweg 4, it stands as a quiet reminder of the role windmills once played in shaping the landscape. For the latest details on visiting, consult the Dutch Windmill Database.
