Kyck over den Dyck is a windmill on the Noordendijk in the city of Dordrecht, in the Dutch province of South Holland. It is the only preserved windmill in that city. The original mill, built in 1612, was a wooden post mill. This mill ground malt, which served as a raw material for Dordrecht's beer brewers. In 1713, the small post mill was replaced by the current stone smock mill.
In 1739, the mill switched to grinding grain. In 1871, the mill was hit by a tornado, which broke off both sails and the axle, and damaged the smock.
