Molen Aeolus

Highlight • Monument

The corn mill on the Kortedijk is already mentioned in a privilege that Count Willem van Holland gave to the city of Vlaardingen on 23 August 1407. In 1954 the mill was sold to the Municipality of Vlaardingen, which had it restored. On that occasion the mill was named "Aeolus" (Aeolus is the name of the God of the wind).
After the restoration, the mill was leased as sales and storage space to "Samenwerking", now the Cooperative Association "Maasmond".
Since April 1, 1977, there has been a split. Maasmond continued to keep its sales in the warehouse and the mill is from that time back into full operation by the Niek Boekestijn family from Maasland and after the blades were replaced in 1977, the mill is running at full speed again every day to grind the grain for the warm bakers.
Currently there is a mill shop where flour and bread mixes can be bought.

Historic Center of Hellevoetsluis

Highlight • Historical Site

The harbour of Hellevoetsluis is an atmospheric place with historic ships on the quays. You walk and enjoy the view of the old fortifications. Around the harbour you will find cosy terraces and restaurants, ideal for a snack or drink with a view of the water.

Hellevoetsluis Harbor

Highlight (Segment) • Structure

Do a round of harbor (max. 10 minutes), because there are many old boats. Like the Noord Hinder 12 (see photo). A ship that used to serve as a 'sailing lighthouse' and warned other boats about a sand band. You can find these and even more stories on an information board for many of these ships.
