Lain in the Molenstraat. Built by Joannes Baptist Van Looy,the first miller (1789). The old mill did not survive the war violence of W.W.I (1914-1918) . Its continuator, the current mill, was moved in 1925, from Voortkapel. Remarkably it here also the integrity of 18° centuries frontage of the miller house. The mill was restored in 1973, and is now property of the family Hoeben.
