The Salamander is a sawmill in the Dutch town of Leidschendam. The mill was built in 1777 as a replacement for a burnt-out predecessor from the seventeenth century. It was in operation until 1953. The rotating motion of the mill is transmitted to the sawing area by means of drive belts, where awnings attached to the crankshaft set the two saw frames in motion. The Salamander has a crankshaft with four cranks, but only two of them are used. The two saw frames are linked to this. From the end of the 19th century, a steam engine was used to make it possible to cut even when there was no wind. This steam engine was fired with waste wood.
