..Een prachtige windmolen van het beltmolen type die stamt uit 1883, midden in het dorpje Sint-Odiliënberg.. De windmolen is maalvaardig.. De windmolen is aan de voorzijde via een voetpad te bereiken, wat niet rolstoel vriendelijk is.. De achterzijde met bijgebouw is wel bereikbaar, maar niet direct open voor publiek.. Deze windmolen was vroeger een banmolen, waarbij boeren in de omgeving gedwongen werden hun meel hier te laten malen en omwonenden hier hun meel moesten kopen.. De windmolen zelf is tijdelijk niet te bezichtigen vanwege geldende COVID-19 virus Maatregelen..
..A beautiful windmill of the belt mill type dating from 1883, in the middle of the village of Sint-Odiliënberg. The windmill is grindful. The windmill can be reached at the front via a footpath, which is not wheelchair friendly .. The rear with outbuilding is accessible, but not directly open to the public .. This windmill used to be a ban mill, where farmers in the area were forced to have their flour milled here and local residents had to buy their flour here. The windmill itself is temporarily not on display due to the current COVID-19 virus measures.

Wunderschöne und toll erhaltene Windmühle von 1883. Kann samstags jeweils von 13.00 - 16.00 Uhr besichtigt werden. Gerade auch für Familien mit Kindern sehr interessant. Ein großes Kompliment an die Ehrenamtler, die hier sehr anschaulich und mit viel Liebe zum Detail erklären (in Niederländisch, Deutsch und Englisch) und die sich liebevoll um "ihre" Mühle kümmern!
Beautiful and beautifully preserved windmill from 1883. Can be visited on Saturdays from 13.00 - 16.00 clock. Especially for families with children very interesting. A big compliment to the volunteers who explain very vividly and with great attention to detail (in Dutch, German and English) and lovingly take care of "their" mill!

The Molen van Verbeek of St. Odiliënberg is a stone grain mill in Sint Odiliënberg, a municipality of Roerdalen, in the Dutch province of Limburg . A belt mill (standing on a natural or artificially raised hill) was built in 1883 to replace the previous grondzeiler (operated from the ground) mill, which burned down in 1882. With the advent of the industrial revolution, an electric motor was added to boost productivity of the mill. The transmission makes use of a leather belt in conjunction with two mating bevel gears. The mill was lucky in the sense that it escaped being bombed during WWII (possibly because it is comparatively inwards from the river Maas - the border between the then Dutch and Germans). There was however some minor damage, which was repaired in 1945-46. The wicks of the vanes were painted in the Dutch tricolor. In 1989, the Verbeek heirs sold the mill to the municipality of St. Odiliënberg. Today the mill can be visited on Saturdays in the afternoon fro 1300 onwards.Though the village of St. Odiliënberg has expanded considerably over the years, the residential blocks near the mill are not to be higher than a single storey and therefore, the mill enjoys an unobstructed windfall. The volunteer millers were very helpful and led tours in Dutch, English and German for visitors. They showed the mechanisms to control the incline (and therefore the delivery speed) of the grains hopper.
