Schoterveense Molen is a pyramid pump windmill on Wipwatermolen Heussensstraat in the former municipality of Schoten, Haarlem, Netherlands, and is registered as a Rijksmonument. It served the Waterschap De Schoterveenpolder, a water board that ended in 1935, and its pumping work passed to an electric station on the Delft canal between 1920 and 1923. Inspection in the 1950s revealed carpenters' marks in its foundations dating to the 16th century, and it may have been built by Spanish troops during the siege of Haarlem.
