De Zwaan Windmill (Ouderkerk aan de Amstel)
Highlight • Monument
This national monument is owned by the association "De Hollandsche Molen" (The Dutch Mill).
In the early 1900s the drained land was reclaimed and the newly created polder was given the name "New Bullewijk". It was regulated by state decree on December 21, 1909. As a result of an agreement of May 20th of the same year, which decided that the remaining part of the "Verenigde Westbijlmer- en Klein Duivendrechtse polder" could, under certain conditions, drain its excess water to the much lower-lying land, the abandonment of the two windmills became of this polder at the beginning of 1910, when the agreement came into force, was taken over by the steam pumping station of "Nieuwe Bullewijk". The mill in the Westbijlmer and Laander polders was then partially and then completely demolished. The mill of the Klein-Duivendrechtse en Binnenbullewijkerpolder remained standing, but fell into disrepair. In 1930 the association "De Hollandsche Molen" took over the management of the mill. It was rented out as a residence, but the mill itself was no longer in operation. A pole is removed and the reeds are also gradually disappearing, so demolition was considered.

Ouderkerk aan de Amstel
Highlight • Settlement
The earliest records of 't Jagershuis date back to the 17th century. The pub was originally called De Rustende Jager (The Hunter) and later Buitenlust. The name 't Jagershuis dates back to the 20th century. It was only after a thorough renovation in 1964 that it acquired its current appearance and purpose as a restaurant-hotel. It is on the list of national monuments. It consists of two gables with a wing attached at right angles and, according to the register of monuments, dates from the 18th century. In February 2017, the building was threatened with being removed from the list of national monuments because architectural research had revealed that it had been completely remodeled between 1963 and 1966 and had "no intrinsic monumental value".
In the meantime, the monument status is no longer legally disputed. The owner of 't Jagershuis is working on the renovation of the building while preserving its monument protection.
