View of De Nijverheid windmill

Highlight • Monument

The mill De Nijverheid (previously also temporarily called De Raaf) is a windmill on the Molensingel in the Dutch town of Ravenstein (municipality of Oss). It is a round stone scaffolding mill that is arranged as a flour mill. The mill was restored in the 1960s after a period of decay, after which it was milled until the end of the 1980s. This came to an end with the death of the then owner. De Nijverheid is now in the hands of the De Ravensteinse Molen Foundation. The last restoration was in the 90s of the 20th century.
