The watermill of Coll. The future of watermill landscapes.

Don't forget to switch on the English subtitles when watching this video!

The first project year on 'Water Management', in collaboration with the heritage communities of traditional grassland irrigation and water mills, led to five fascinating clips.

Watermills and their weirs have often determined the environment for centuries. This is for example visible in the important watermill landscape at the Collse watermill near Eindhoven. The miller's knowledge of managing the weir and its impact on the surrounding landscape has been passed on from generation to generation. Today, that knowledge can be used to contribute to sustainable management of the wet nature around the mill.
