Windmill Week - Day 2 - De Jonge Held

On day 2 of the windmill week another small detour on my way to work to get to De Jonge Held (The Young Hero). Built in 1829, this is also a pumping station, just like the mill I blipped yesterday. The mill pumps water out of a polder that is also called 'De Jonge Held'. It's unclear if the windmill is named after the polder or the other way around.

Windmill week started here.
