Museummolen De Walvisch

The Walvisch Museum Mill is an icon of Schiedam’s jenever industry. This impressive tower mill, built in 1794, used to grind grain for the city’s many distilleries. Since its restoration, it has become a living monument where you can experience the power of the wind and the miller’s craftsmanship up close. Inside the mill, you’ll discover the story of the “tallest windmills in the world” and see how Schiedam, thanks to these giants, grew to become the jenever capital of the world.
