10. Windmill The Rose - The New Delft Water Walk
Cultural Heritage: The mill was lifted by 1 meter to facilitate the construction of the train tunnel. The mill garden contains climate-proof vegetation.
Windmill ‘The Rose’ (Molen de Roos) was built around 1760, at the same location where previous windmills have stood since 1500. It was built specifically for grinding flour and is still in use today for that purpose. When the train tunnel was being built, the windmill was placed onto a large concrete slab and was raised up 1 meter so the roof of the tunnel could be constructed. After construction was completed, it was returned to its original position. In 2019, a new garden was established next to the mill. It has a large variety of plants, selected to bloom in all seasons. Both the windmill and the garden are run and maintained by a group of volunteers.
