The Vento Vivimus is a beautiful white windmill located on Molenstraat in the town of Hurwenen. The mill was built in 1875, and was used to grind corn for the town. The name of the mill is Latin, and means ’We live on the wind’. The mill suffered heavy damage during World War 2, and restoration began in 1975. The mill stood idle until 1988 when funds were found for the restoration work to be completed. The mill is in working order, and is open to visitors every Saturday afternoon, with appointments available for other days.
