The Perseverance

De Volharding is a flour mill in Zeddam in the Dutch province of Gelderland. The mill was built in 1891 and is therefore a very young mill compared to the other mill of Zeddam, De Grafelijke Korenmolen which was already built in the 15th century. The Volharding remained in operation on wind power until 1941, after which the cross and tail were removed. In 1979 the mill was completely restored. The mill has rods with a length of 20.50 meters that are equipped with the old Dutch fencing with sails. The device consists of two pairs of grinding stones. The Perseverance is owned by private individuals and is put into operation weekly by a volunteer miller.
