The Oranjemolen is a flour mill and former hulling mill on the Oranjedijk in Vlissingen, in the Dutch province of Zeeland. Due to its location, this windmill is both a good wind catcher and an eye-catcher. It is a scaffolding mill that was described in 1699, and must therefore have been built earlier. Since 1968, the mill has been owned by the municipality of Vlissingen. It is covered with roofing felt and has a radius of 24.50/24.60 meters. Since 2014, the mill has been able to grind and is still used to grind grain on a voluntary basis. Of the 23 city mills in Vlissingen, the Oranjemolen is the only one that remains. It is the closest windmill to the sea in the Netherlands. The mill has suffered from war violence on several occasions. A bullet from the English fleet in 1809 is said to still be in the southwest side of the mill wall. Traces of the Second World War can also still be found - the Allies landed near the mill in 1944.
