The Dommelschemolen
On the edge of Valkenswaard you will find the Dommelschemolen. The year of construction of this watermill is also unknown, but the mill was already mentioned in the second half of the 14th century. In 1747 the mill came into the hands of the nunnery of Arendonk. The rulers then prohibited farmers from having their grain ground at this mill. Later the mill passed to another owner. Until 1977, flour for bakeries and compound feed was ground at the mill. Nowadays the mill is no longer in use.
