Facts and practical information

Sint Anna is a corn mill on the Tungeler Dorpsstraat in Tungelroy in the Dutch province of Limburg.

The mill was commissioned by Jan Mathijs Peerlings in 1875. The construction was probably related to the closing of two watermills in 1880, when the water management had to be improved. The windmill's wings were equipped with the van Bussel system in 1939.

The mill remained in operation until the early 1970s. Then the miller had to stop his business and the mill came to a standstill. In 1991, the municipality bought the Sint Anna and had the now dilapidated mill restored. The mill was restored again in 2009/2010 and festively handed over during the Limburg Windmill Day on October 2/3, 2010. Since 1 January 2010 the Molenstichting Weerterland has had the management of this mill.

The rods of the mill are equipped with the old Dutch fencing with sails. The mill is furnished with two pairs of 17der artificial stones, one of which has been opened up so that the shards of the stones and the bearings of the top stone, the so-called runner, are clearly visible.
