The best of Dutch windmills are in Zaandam, perfectly restored and functioning on daily bases as they used hundred years ago. Visit to De Gekroonde Poelenburg in particular is worth the trip from Amsterdam as really miller explains how it works and the history of the Dutch sawmill. The Zaandam village is just as beautiful but I think the towering windmills steals the show.
Old sawmill it's great to stop in on a bike
Lovely view on the waters from here.
This is a great area with some great windmills and great displays. The authentic old village is really good too and very interesting. The staff are very informative and interesting. Plenty of things to see. Well worth a visit it’s really pretty here.
5€ for a 10min visit (and we took our time because it was hot outside), we could only visit the basement, we couldn't enjoy the view from the upper floor or even see the mecanism of the windmill. Tourist bait. I don't know about others windmill but don't got to the wooden plank maker one if you want to see something intresting.
