De Lelie and De Ster windmills

Highlight • Monument

These two windmills on the Kralingse Plas provide a typical Dutch picture, close to the city. De Lelie dates from 1777 and De Ster accompanied it 52 years later (in 1829). De Lelie as it now stands in front of you is the original mill, while De Ster is fire and has been rebuilt twice.

De Ster and De Lelie windmills at the Kralingse Plas

Highlight • Monument

De Ster and De Lelie at the Kralingse Plas in Rotterdam-Kralingen are the only still working snuff and spice mills. De Ster is originally from 1829 and has been rebuilt twice after fire. The Lily is from 1777 and still in original condition.

The Holland Pop Festival was a three-day pop festival in 1970, in the Kralingse Bos in Rotterdam. The musical event went down in history as the Dutch version of the American Woodstock Festival in 1969. Despite the rain, tens of thousands of people attended. (from: Wikipedia)

Kralingse Plas (Central Park Rotterdam)

Highlight • Lake

Nice place to run around it (exactly 5 km) and if you are very lucky you can skate here in the winter.

Kralingse Plas

Highlight • Lake

The Kralingsplas has a special location, because it is close to the city center of Rotterdam, but still offers a feeling of peace and nature.
