’s Hertogenmolens, Aarschot
Highlight • Monument
The mill complex was uniquely located, it served as a bridge over the Demer and served as a grain mill, bark and glass mill, but also as a defense of the city.
Vessels that passed under the central arch had to pay taxes. The rings in the wall, where the ships moored, are still visible.
In 1970 the mill was partly destroyed by a fire. In 1986, the 's Hertogenmolens became a protected monument and the surrounding area a classified village view.
