The Terpensmole is a spider's head drainage windmill standing on an artificial dwelling hill in IJlst, Súdwest-Fryslân, Friesland, in the Netherlands. Moved there in 2011 from Sneek, where it was known as the Himmole, it is a Rijksmonument (number 22914) and remains fully functional, helping to drain the adjacent polder.
