The current Mill of Hoeke was constructed in 1840, however, the origin of this piece of heritage is a lot older. In 1481, a wooden post mill is situated on this spot. According to certain sources, milling already takes place in 1324.
In 1936, the Belgian state buys the Mill of Hoeke and awards it the status of a protected monument. Because the mill is no longer in a good state at that time, it is put out of action. In 1985, after two rounds of restoration, the Mill of Hoeke regaines its milling capacity and finds a new miller. With passion for the miller's profession, craftsmen allow visitors to truly experience this piece of agricultural and industrial heritage.
