With its seven floors and 29 metres of height, the De Valk Windmill Museum in Leiden is hard to miss.

After the death of the last miller, the mill became a museum in 1966. The only preserved town miller's house in the Netherlands exudes the atmosphere of around 1900. The blades rotate regularly and from the position you have a magnificent view of Leiden.

This is also an extra information point in the city center!
