Beautiful hollow post mill, also special are the two vertical mills on either side of the back of the upper house; these start turning when the mill is not exactly in the wind.

A wip mill is a further development of the standard mill and is usually a polder mill. The rotating, usually brightly colored upper part contains the 'wing shaft' that turns the 'king's spindle'. The prefix 'wip' refers to the movement of these mills during grinding.

Beautiful polder area between Zoetermeer, Leiden and Alphen a / d Rijn. Worth a tour.
