The windmill was build in 1807, and his name is Eben Haëzer (latin for: hitherto hath the Lord help us).
There are many types of windmills, but the windmill on Spui ia a belt-mill.
First of all, I went for an excursion in the windmill. During this excursion, the miller told us a nice story about the history of the windmill.
The ''Eben Haëzer'' was the first windmill in Zeeuws-Vlaanderen. It is interesting that the windmill is build of second hand stones. That was because there was not enough money for new stones.
During the excursion I saw very interesting things, such as the wooden gears, the muller, and the large wigs. It is also very interesting to see how they make in earlier times flower with this big buildings. There are very old things inside, and it is very interesting to are inside the windmill.
I have choose this building because it is in my village, and I like this building because it is genious how they make that kind of things.
The windmill is white of colour and the wigs are red with green.
