Nineteen windmills, build around 1740, still doing their work: keep the Albasserwaard dry. Once a rough and wet peat bog, but eventually colonised and reclaimed by man. Kinderdijk is about 25 kilometres from Rotterdam, and is situated between the rivers Lek and Merwede. Nowhere in the Netherlands you can find so many windmills as here.
