Mijn Genoegen is a paltrok mill in the Netherlands Open Air Museum in Arnhem, Gelderland, Netherlands which has been restored to working order. As are all Dutch paltrok mills, it is a wind-powered sawmill.
The windmill was built around 1680 in Dordrecht, where it was known as Het Spinnewiel . In 1854 the mill was moved to Numansdorp and the name was changed to Mijn Genoegen . Two of the three wooden sawing frames were replaced by cast iron frames in 1854; the wooden windshaft was replaced with cast iron in 1887. In Numansdorp the mill was continuously owned by the Verboom family until the museum bought the mill in good condition from the owner.
