The name of these three windmills from right to left are The Crowned Poelenburg (sawmill), The Cat (dyemill), and The Seeker (oilmill).
The original mill at the same location of “The Crowned Poelenburg" was built in 1733 which destroyed in a fire accident in 1907.
The existing mill was installed in this place in 1963. "The Cat" is the only remaining working windmill in the world which makes paint, it was built in 1960.
The first windmill in the location of "The Seeker" was built in 1676, but the existing windmill was built in 1968.
