Source

The Skenkelsø Mølle is a three-story structure clad with shingles. It features an onion-shaped hat and wings with a wingspan of 17 meters, stern rail for sail, and wind boards. These unique features provide a fascinating insight into the design and operation of traditional Dutch windmills, making it a captivating attraction for tourists.

Skenkelsø Mølle as a Museum Mill

The Skenkelsø Mølle holds the status of a museum mill. Its operation significantly later than most old windmills, coupled with the fact that it has never been exposed to fires, has resulted in the preservation of almost all of its original inventory. This makes it a valuable resource for those interested in learning about the history and operation of traditional windmills.

Additional Features at Skenkelsø Mølle

In addition to the mill inventory and tools, the Skenkelsø Mølle also houses a schoolroom with desks and an exhibition of flint and other stones that were produced in different eras. These additional features provide a broader historical context and offer visitors a more comprehensive understanding of the mill's history and the era in which it operated.
