Four monumental mills in a row that have been keeping the polder dry for almost two centuries.
Nowhere will you find four working polder mills lined up so beautifully as here. You walk along the Ottevangerpad on the dike past all four, with benches and information panels along the way.
Two Saturdays a month the sails turn and the mills drain the polder water just as they did in the past. Mills three and four stand right alongside the cycle path and are wonderful to photograph.
