De Koornbloem, Goes
Facts and practical information
De Koornbloem is a corn mill on the Paardeweg in Goes, in the Dutch province of Zeeland. It is a round brick stage mill from 1801, covered with roofing membrane and with a flight of 23,06/22,90 meters. It is a picture-perfect mill, built as a rampart mill on the old city wall, although the proximity of the Goes TV tower has reduced its scenic value. Until 1967 the mill was in commercial service, nowadays it grinds grain on a voluntary basis.
The municipality of Goes has owned the mill since 1954. Since then, restorations have taken place in 1970, 1995-96 and in 2002, the latter because the embankment on which the mill stands was subsiding.
