The Tjasker Giethoorn is a traditional Dutch windmill of the tjasker type, located in Steenwijkerland in the Netherlands and preserved as part of Museum Giethoorn. Tjaskers are small, manually operated or wind-powered pumping mills characteristic of the low-lying Dutch landscape, where they were essential for water management and drainage.
