Traveler reviews
PerryElOrnitorrinco
★★★★★5 months agoIncredibly impressive windmill in the outskirts of Bruges. You can walk up to it and enjoy the view of the towers and monuments in the centre. Definitely worth the visit, there are four windmills in this area, all in a walkable distance.
Kimberly Harle
★★★★★2 years agoPretty windmill with a picnic area and pretty green space around it. A little bit of a drop off so we didn’t let the kids run at the top but we enjoyed it. It wasn’t open when we were there but we were there on a weekday. We walked there from town
