Bovenrijge is a self-regulating stellingmill (an elevated windmill with a gallery platform) built in 1903 in Ten Boer, Groningen, Netherlands. As a zelfzwichter—a Dutch windmill equipped with automatic swing-tail technology to adjust sail angle with changing wind—it represents an early twentieth-century refinement in milling efficiency. The structure is designated a Rijksmonument, reflecting its status as a protected cultural monument in the Dutch heritage system.
