Along the Vecht River near Weesp stand two historic windmills: De Vriendschap Windmill and d’Eendragt Windmill.
De Vriendschap was built in 1900 after an earlier windmill was destroyed by lightning and still grinds grain.
d’Eendragt is older and has served various purposes over the centuries, including serving as a corn mill, a shell mill, and a sawmill.
These windmills are a reminder of the time when Weesp was a center for beer breweries and gin distilleries that required large quantities of ground grain.
Of the dozens of windmills that once stood here, these two are the most famous remnants.
