The Koeleweimolen is a reconstructed corn mill located in Brugge, Belgium, on the Kruisvest, near the city center. Originally built in 1765-1766 in Meulebeke as the Bosterhoutmolen, it operated until 1958. Plans to relocate it were abandoned, leading to its sale to the city of Brugge, which rebuilt it in 1996. The mill is significant for its historical value and is a working corn mill that offers insights into traditional milling practices. Visitors can explore the structure and appreciate its role in Brugge's agricultural heritage. Accessibility is good, and the site is a great stop for those interested in history and culture. Admission details and visiting hours should be checked prior to your visit.
