Description


This is the Wijk by Duurstede Mill. It is said that Ruysdael, a Dutch 17th Century painter, exposed this mill on one of his paintings but nowadays most art critics doubt that. It is a special mill anyway as it was also used as a gateway. As far as I know it is the only mill in Holland to be used both as a mill and a gateway. This photo has been extracted from a photoslide.

Il manque la piste cyclabe, C'est dommage mais c'est onnant et certainement tres utile pour les voisins. Bravo pour cette photo.
