Oostmolen in Gistel

Dating back as far as 1302. Destroyed by fire several times. Always rebuild. After the last fire in 1977 the mill had a major restoration. This is a post mill that was raised in 1841 and placed on top of a round stone room where an Oil mill was installed to press lineseed. So this mill produced flour and oil by the use of wind.
