The windmills of Kinderdijk, The Netherlands (2021)

Starting our visit at the UNESCO World Heritage Site near the village of Kinderdijk in the Netherlands. Normally an extremely busy touristic site it was now practically deserted which made the experience so much better. Here we are getting closer to the Nederwaard mills.

Some of the windmills at the UNESCO World Heritage Site near the village of Kinderdijk in the Netherlands have been transformed into a museum. The lovely white drawbridge leads to the Nederwaard museum mill. Unfortunately closed because of the covid pandemic, but a very pretty sight nevertheless.

Obviously closed because of the covid pandemic but in normal times this really cute white drawbridge can be used to visit the Nederwaard museum mill on the other side of the canal. This windmill too is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site near the village of Kinderdijk in the Netherlands.
