Description

De Hoop is a belt mill in Horn. The sixteen-sided mill was built in 1817, shortly after the abolition of the mill compulsion, during the French period. This was against the wishes of the local nobility, who believed they still had mill rights.
During the withdrawal of the German troops at the end of World War II, explosive charges were placed in the mill, but the Germans were surprised by shellfire and were unable to complete their task. As a result, the mill was one of the few mills in Limburg to survive the war without heavy damage.
