Luizenmolen
Anderlecht, Belgium · built 1864
The Luizenmolen (lit. 'Louse Mill') is a post mill in Anderlecht, a municipality of Brussels, Belgium. It is a fully functional windmill built in 1996 as a replica of an earlier mill erected on the same site in 1864. The reconstruction was initiated by a local heritage group concerned with preserving the district's rural history. The current structure was inaugurated in May 1999 and designated a protected monument in 2007. The mill stands on an artificial hill along the Rue des Papillons/Vlindersstraat (lit. 'Butterfly Street') in Neerpede, approximately 30 metres (98 ft) from the site of the original mill, which was demolished in 1955. It remains in working order and is open to visitors.
