Of course, from the beginning of the twentieth century the mills have given way to steam engines, and their number has significantly decreased. In 1925, however, it happened something special, because a knot of people of good will (the association Vereniging De Molen Zaansche), had decided to show the younger generation the history of windmills. The best way to appreciate the majesty of the mills, believe me, is to navigate by boat along the river, or to ride a bike. Both ways are pleasantly combined to silence and peace around you. The first mills date back to 1321, they were used to move the water and grinding the flour, but also as crushers for the oil and for the paper. Now, for you, all of them grind serenity. http://www.zaanstreek.nl/visitors/?view=list&sort=name&sortOrder=desc&page=6
