De Zwaluw is a self-regulating stellingmill (an elevated windmill mounted on a timber framework) located in Ferwerderadiel in the Netherlands, now designated as a Rijksmonument. As a zelfzwichter type, the mill was designed to automatically adjust its sails to changing wind conditions, a significant innovation in Dutch windmill engineering that improved operational efficiency and safety.
