Molen De Schelvenaer

The Schelvenaer flour mill is located along the Hollandsche IJssel. It was built in 1993 on the spot where the Onverwacht flour mill once stood. The old mill was built outside the dykes in the mid-19th century, so that ships from Rotterdam could moor to unload their grain. The Onverwacht burnt out completely in 1930. The new mill is named after Cornelis van Schelven, who had the Onverwacht mill built.
