windmills
In the 17th C there were more than 10000 windmills in the Netherlands. They were used for drainage and industrial purposes: saw mills, oil mills, paper mills etc. Nowadays there are still over a thousand windmills. About 25% still function, the rest have been converted into restaurants or houses, like this mill on the outskirts of Weesp.
