| Near this windmill lies the oldest reclamation in the world! |
In 1408, Floris van Alkemade, owner of Cronesteijn castle, built a windmill in order to pump the water out of the castle grounds into the outer castle moat. By doing so, he created the first reclamation in history.
In this site I added many of my own photos. You are free to use them for non-commercial activities but please, let me know!
