About the artwork

The Munnikenmolen in Leiderdorp is a historic polder mill in the province of South Holland. Built in 1890, this mill played a crucial role in the water control of the Munnikenpolder.

The Munnikenmolen is a so-called round stone ground-sailer. This means that the mill is built on a stone base and the sails of the mill reach down to the ground, so they can be operated from the ground.

The mill is a polder mill, designed to pump water from the polder and keep the land dry. Originally, the Munnikenmolen pumped excess water from the polder to the Oude Rijn river. This was essential for farming in the area, as dry land was needed for agricultural activities.

The current Munnikenmolen replaced an earlier mill on the same site that was destroyed by fire in 1889. The present 1890 structure remained in active use to drain the polder well into the 20th century.

Nowadays, the Munnikenmolen is owned by a mill foundation that ensures its preservation and maintenance. Although the original polder pumping station has now been taken over by more modern pumping stations, the mill can still function. On special occasions or demonstrations, the mill is still operated.

The Munnikenmolen in Leiderdorp is a wonderful example of the traditional Dutch water mills that played a vital role in controlling the water level in the polder landscape.
