Noordenveld mill is one of two mills in the village of Norg. Two functioning mills in one village! The mills take turns running on Saturdays. Noordenveld is privately owned—but its owner gives millers plenty of opportunity to keep it running. The mill can be observed in all its splendour walking or cycling towards it from the east.
Noordenveld mill was probably built in 1878. It had the same owner for a long time. He first used it himself and later rented it out. In 1962 a new owner arrived on the scene, restoring the mill. The ground floor and the first attic became living quarters; several years later, a house was built next to the mill for permanent habitation. Since its owner’s focus was on using the mill as a living space, it wasn’t operational for a long time; however, owing to the efforts of a group of dedicated volunteer millers, the mill has been operational again since 2002.
