De Broeckmolen is a stone corn windmill, stone ground sailer type, on the south side of the Lindestraat (no. 13) in Beveren-aan-de-IJzer. The mill was built in 1862 to replace a blown down mill from before 1350. The mill is still running, albeit as a tourist attraction,

The Brouck mill as you see it today was built in 1872. This mill still grinds and runs regularly, usually on weekends.

Brouckmolen: whitewashed history in the Westhoek 🌾
In the middle of the open landscape of Beveren-IJzer, the Brouckmolen rises majestically. This whitewashed brick ground sailer was built in 1872 to replace an older wooden post mill and milled grain for the region for many years.
With its three pairs of millstones, oat crusher, and sifter, the mill is a beautiful piece of living milling heritage. It has been protected as a monument since 1944 and has since been restored several times.
A photogenic eye-catcher among the polders and fields, which you should definitely admire up close during your bike tour!
