Nieuwlandse Molen
De Nieuwlandse Molen
3151 XH Rotterdam

You can see a mill in the middle of the department stores. Popularly, this mill is called the 'mill van Knijff', because the Van der Knijff family supplied the millers for generations. The windmill was built in 1580-1584 to drain the polder. In the Second World War, the Germans used the mill to charge their batteries. Because the surrounding department stores became higher in the 1980s, it was also necessary to raise the mill. A 5.60 m high concrete base was built and the mill was placed on top of it. The upper barber - that is to say that the miller can turn the hood on the wind - thus became a tower mill.
De Pluktuin
De Pluktuin has been located in the middle of Westland, on the former nursery of the van den Ende family.

In the Pluktuin you will feel as if you are on vacation. The garden is set up in English spheres with borders and includes an orchard, a utility garden with fruit trees and a vegetable garden and an inner garden. Discover the different corners of the garden and marvel at the beauty of nature every time. This garden is cared for and maintained in a natural (organic) way and is a piece of tranquility in the busy Westland.
