Summary

Description
English: Dutch stone drainage mill (polder-mill with bucket wheel) in Sakura, Japan. It is a so-called ground-sailer type (sail tips reaching almost down to the ground), made in the Netherlands, shipped to and assembled in Japan in June 1994 by millwrights Verbij Hoogmade BV on the occasion of the 40th anniversary of Sakura City. The windmill is named "De Liefde" - "The Love" after the first Dutch sailing vessel that reached Japanese shores in 1600. Mill tower (16.5 m / 51 ft high) with 4 storeys (floors) of reinforced concrete; outside wall covered with half-stones (brick-tiles) to give a brick-built impression; cap luffed (rotated to face the wind) with tail-pole, endless chain, and wheel; diameter of sail-cross: 27.5 m / 90 ft. Ground and 1st floor accessible to the public. In springtime the mill is surrounded by thousands of flowering tulips - giving a real Dutch impression.
