Windmill "Bataaf" te Winterswijk  The Netherlands

History of the 'Bataaf' mill

At the end of the 18th century it was the nobility who determined the number of mills, because the nobility had the right to wind and pumping. Because of the French times these privileges have disappeared and everyone had the right to start a mill. In Winterswijk the 'Bataaf' was the first mill to use that right.

On August 28, 1880 "was the first meeting that led to the establishment of the" Bataafse "mill. Construction began at the time of the Batavian Republic, from where the name 'Bataaf' was derived. By selling shares, the ministers of the Ned. Herv. To be able to provide Church with maintenance. The tender for the wood of the mill took place on 16 September 1800 for a total amount of 3255 guilders. The 'Rigtemasten' for building the octagon was established on 20 January 1801. The ongoing work and the mill axis were applied in the same year on 9 April. The 'Bataaf' is a so-called belt mill and has a flight of 24 meters. On 21 May 1801, the 'Bataaf' turned for the first time, still without sails. The inauguration of the mill took place on June 2, 1801 and on that day was also actually milled for the first time. The first miller of the 'Bataaf' was Jan Bolthof, born on the 'Nieuwe Watermolen' (Berenschotmolen). On August 19, 1801, a letter arrived which stated that the mill had been built without permission from Arnhem. On May 19, 1802, however, the news came that a trial against the establishment of the "Batav" had been lost. By J.W. Boeyink and G. Tenkink (shareholders) were submitted on 3 March 1843 to the District Commissioner for permission to set up a roller flour mill at the 'Bataaf'. This request was approved on 5 May 1843. By the marriage of Johanna Bolthof (daughter of miller Jan Berend) with Garrit in Lintum in 1848 the name in Lintum was connected to the 'Bataaf'. According to a notarial deed, A. te Lintum bought the last shares of the 'Bataaf' on 1 May 1915 and now had the mill in its possession. The 'Bataaf' was stripped of its wicks around 1920. In 1937 the windmill was made turnable again for the wind. The 'Bataaf' was equipped with so-called Dekker-premise and Ten Have-brake valves (used here for the first time in the Netherlands). Until 1956 the 'Bataaf' milled on wind force. In 1963 the sails cross and the inside were removed, which meant the end of working with the windmill. The various expansions of the modern mill have partially hidden the mill body from view. On June 2, 2001 the founding of the 'Molen' Bataaf 'Foundation took place; exactly 200 years after the mill was taken into use.

At the border

In the early thirties there was a lively border trade with Germany. The grain was imported at the border in Kotten (Holtstegge) and again carried out at the border in Huppel (Knuver). The earnings came from the difference between the import and export levy of the grain. Was it not earned by the fact that unprocessed grain was imported and ground flour was exported? You just need the mill for that? When the wind was being ground, there was a specific sound of the rotating blades. Because of this, it happened regularly that a driver, from horse and wagon, asked if the vanes could be stopped. The horse often did not dare to come to the windmill due to the sound of the blades. After stopping the blades, the problem was solved.
