Description
De Adriaan windmill is a smock mill, a wooden towered mill, built in 1778 on the foundations of an ancient defensive tower near the centre of town. Owing to its scenic location on the Spaarne river and its great height De Adriaan was one of the most striking features of Haarlem for centuries until the dramatic end to its existence in 1932 when the windmill burnt to the ground. Through the efforts of many local citizens The Adriaan has now been rebuilt. Seventy years after the fire Haarlem's skyline, dominated by the Bavo Church, once again includes De Adriaan's spinning sails.
