Klaarkampstermeermolen

The Klaarkampstermeermolen or Klaarkampstermolen is a polder windmill in Rinsumageast, Friesland, the Netherlands.

Built in 1862 the smock mill was relocated to its current position in 1893 and has been restored several times.

It was moved to its current site in 1893 to drain the 210 pondemaat (77 ha; 190 acres) Klaarkampstermeer.

The lower crown wheel, which has 34 cogs is carried on the axle of an Archimedes' screw that drains the Klaarkampstermeer polder.

The 1.07 metres (3 ft 6 in) diameter screw is inclined at 25.7° and each revolution lifts 293 litres (64 imp gal) of water.
