De Vlijt, Meppel

De Vlijt (English: The Diligence) is a smock mill in Meppel, Netherlands.

De Vlijt was built in 2001 on the base of a tower mill which had been taken out of use in 1933 and demolished in 1965.

The tower had been built on an octagonal brick base which was left standing.

[2] De Vlijt is what the Dutch describe as an "achtkante stellingmolen".

[3] The cast-iron windshaft was made by Fabrikaat Gieterij Hardinxveld in 2001.
