The Prinsenmolen is a ground sailer from 1648 on the Rotte in the Rotterdam borough of Hillegersberg. In 1881 the steam pumping station Berg en Broekse Verlaat was built and the Bergsche Mill that until then together with the Prinsenmolen kept the polder dry, was demolished. Until 1966, the Prinsenmolen drained the Berg en Broek polder, but is now out of operation and has a residential function. The Prinsenmolen is capable of grinding.
