De Oude molen is a grondzeiler, or ground-based windmill, in the Dutch province of Zeeland and a Rijksmonument. Built in 1801, it operated until 1953, when the municipality bought it in 1959. After restorations in 1964–1965 and 1986–1992 and a slight move in 2001, a volunteer miller runs it regularly. Its rods, about 20.70 metres long, carry traditional Dutch fencing sails, and it has two pairs of millstones.
