De Poel is a grondzeiler windmill (a ground-sill mill, the simplest Dutch windmill type) located in Borsele, Netherlands, and designated as a Rijksmonument. The building represents the modest, functional architecture of traditional Dutch milling, with its characteristic low-profile construction that allowed the entire wooden superstructure to pivot on a ground-set post to face changing winds.
