The smock mill, on the left, at the Netherlands Open Air Museum, Arnhem, was originally built to drain the Oosterpolder at Noordlaren, Groningen in 1862. On the right stands the paltrok mill, named ‘Mijn Genoegen’ (English: My Pleasure). As are all Dutch paltrok mills, it is a wind-powered sawmill.
