Nederlands Graanmuseum: two production routes at Woldzigt

The Nederlands Graanmuseum is housed in the Woldzigt mill in Roderwolde. The organisation describes flour milling and oil pressing as different functions of the installation.

Plan your visit ↗

Grain and flour

On a guided tour, have the guide explain which parts carry out the milling process. Following the steps gives a large piece of machinery a concrete task rather than just a technical name.

Oil as a second subject

Oil pressing is a different process within the same mill. Ask when a demonstration of it takes place. That programme is not automatically available on every ordinary visiting day.

Art with its own hours

The Meulenkaomer sometimes has a separate exhibition schedule. Longer hours for an art exhibition do not mean that the grain museum and the full mill route are open at the same time.

Before you go

The ground floor can be reached via a ramp; upstairs cannot. Check the seasonal hours and keep the art exhibition hours separate from the museum’s opening times.
