Standerdmolen Rosmalen

Post mill Rosmalen (Dutch: Standerdmolen Rosmalen) is a historic post mill located in neighbourhood of Molenhoek in Rosmalen, Netherlands. Constructed in 1732, the mill stands on a natural slope, which is accentuated by the placement of old millstones. Historically, Rosmalen had several mills, but t

his is the sole surviving one. Following damage sustained during the Second World War, plans were initially made to demolish the structure. However, its designation as a rijksmonument (national heritage site) ensured its preservation and eventual restoration. Today, the mill is owned by the municipality of 's-Hertogenbosch, serving as a reminder of Rosmalen's milling heritage.
