Geschiedenis

The Assumburg, also known as Het Huis Assenburg, is a windmill located on the Veerweg 1 in Nieuw-Vossemeer, Steenbergen, in the province of North Brabant, Netherlands. Build in 1780 in The Zaan district, the windmill functioned as oil mill, until it was moved to its current location in 1897, when it became a gristmill. The mill was built as a tower mill with a bottom support of 5.20 meters high, and its sails have a span of 22.20 meters. The mill is a national monument since 15 May 1973.Gallery of images File:Korenmolen "Het Huis Assenburg", in verval - Nieuw-Vossemeer - 20165998 - RCE.jpg|Assenburg in 1962 File:Korenmolen "De Assemburg", exterieur in restauratie - Nieuw-Vossemeer - 20166042 - RCE.jpg|Mill without its top and sails File:Korenmolen "Assemburg", interieur kap - Nieuw-Vossemeer - 20166045 - RCE.jpg|Top section, removed during restoration
