Jantina Helling Windmill (Aalden)

Highlight • Monument

The Jantina Helling mill, also known as the Geesina mill, is a traditional windmill located in the village of Gees. The mill is named after Jantina Helling, a resident of Gees who was committed to preserving the cultural heritage of the village.

The mill is an octagonal stilt mill, which means that the upper part of the mill can rotate to catch the wind. The original mill was built in 1905, but unfortunately this mill was destroyed by fire in 1943. In 2000 it was decided to rebuild the mill and in 2003 the new Jantina Helling mill was completed.

In Boswachterij Gees the heathland transforms into a sea of purple hues during the flowering season, surrounded by green forests and sandy paths. This colourful nature reserve offers hikers and cyclists a beautiful view of the flowering heathland and is ideal for a quiet trip through the Drenthe landscape.
