Sloten - Corn mill Print E-mail

The current water gates date from 1768 (the Sneker or Woudsenderpoort gate) and 1821 (the Lemsterpoort gate). The bastion of the latter gate is adorned with the corn mill which was constructed in 1755. A mill was even located on this site in the Middle Ages. A small prison is also incorporated into the gate. Near the entrance to the cell there is a pillory as a reminder of the Spanish attack.
