De Mars is a smock mill in De Blesse, Friesland, Netherlands which was built in 1997 on the base of an earlier mill. The mill is listed as a Rijksmonument, number 527616.
An unnamed smock mill was built here in 1834. It drove two pairs of 1.40 metres diameter millstones. The mill was probably built for Philips Schlecht. As built, it was a "grondzeiler", lacking the brick base it later stood on. The base was built in the late nineteenth century. An electric motor was used as auxiliary power from 1919. A sailstock broke c1925. The mill machinery was dismantled c1927. The mill was demolished c1958, leaving the base standing.
