Netherlands De Helper Molen
Helper is a polder on the eastern shore of Paterswoldsemeer in the municipality Haren, Groningen province in the hamlet Nijveensterkolk.
The mill was built in 1863 south of the city of Groningen for the drainage of the polder Helpman using a mortar. The mill fell into the sixties of the twentieth century, permanently, and fell into disrepair. The mill was due to expansion of the city of Groningen and the construction of the A28 in 1969, broken down into its original place and built in 1971 by the Paterswoldsemeer again. The drainage is installed in a circuit for water circulation of the locks on the eastern side of the lake. The mill is on a voluntary basis in business. - Wikipedia
