Schermerhorn museum windmill, municipality of Alkmaar


The Schermerpolder was created after 52 windmills drained the Schermeer (lake) between 1633 and 1635. The museum windmill in Schermerhorn is one of the 11 windmills used to drain the polder that have survived to this day. A visit to the windmill is a unique experience, with the miller on hand to offer a personal introduction.
