This oil mill, dating back to 1548 still has a great deal to offer today. The building, which was extended in 1916 to form the only water-driven sawmill in Flanders, has been restored to its original condition. In the former bakery of the ‘Klaaskensmill’, an audio-visual presentation provides a deeper insight into the history of the mills on the Bosbrook.
