Bisschopsmolen Maastricht - Maastricht

Bisschopsmolen Maastricht

by Imaniac

The Bisschopsmolen (Bishhop's Mill) is a big water mill in the centre of Maastricht. It dates back to the 17th century. On the outside you can see a huge wooden wheel, used to power the mill. The mill is powered by the river Jeker. The building itself dates back to the 11th century, when it was used by the famous Godfried de Bouillon.

Every second and fourth saturday of the month you can visit the mill from the inside. You can access the wooden wheel on the street called "Achter de oude Minderbroeders" near the church of Our Dear Lady. If you want to visit the mill you have to go to the street called "Stenen Brug". The mill is still in use to grind food for the cattle.
