    Museummolen De Nieuwe Palmboom in Schiedam offers visitors an authentic Dutch windmill experience. This fully operational 18th-century windmill provides insight into the traditional milling process and the history of jenever (Dutch gin) production in Schiedam. The museum features informative exhibits about windmill technology and the town's industrial past. Visitors can climb to the top for panoramic views of Schiedam. The knowledgeable staff and interactive displays enhance the educational value. However, some visitors note that the steep stairs might be challenging for those with mobility issues. The museum is relatively small, which some find limiting, but others appreciate its focused and intimate atmosphere.
