Description

The Mill Ter Zeven Wegen is a flour mill that was built in 1790 in the East Flemish town of Denderwindeke. It is a mountain mill that was raised after a fire in 1863. To make enough space for the mill cap, a "cantilevered mouse-tooth frieze" was installed, above which the hull was cylindrically bricked. Also striking is the seat hood with tail overhang. These features give the mill a very characteristic appearance.

The Windmill Ter Zeven Wegen, as it was already called in the mid-nineteenth century, was powered by wind power until 1955. Due to the poor condition of the mill, the sails were removed in 1991. In 1993, the city of Ninove acquired the dilapidated mill on a long lease and from 2002 to 2005 it was thoroughly restored, during which the mill was completely demolished and rebuilt. Since the restoration, it has been able to grind again.
