Windmill program is July 10 in Fulton

FULTON, Ill. — The de Immigrant volunteer millers are pleased to take part in Fulton's tourism events with “Celebrate: Groningen Windmills.”

This presentation on windmills from the province of Groningen in The Netherlands will be given by Henk Hielema at the Fulton City Hall Council Chambers at 6:30 p.m. July 10.

The presentation will last approximately 30 minutes and light refreshments will be served.

Many of the Dutch who settled in the Fulton area emigrated from the province of Groningen, primarily a Protestant province in the northern part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Fulton’s Dutch windmill was constructed in the province of Groningen, and Fulton’s millers were trained by millers from Groningen.

Henk and June Hielema are the researchers, engineers, and historians of more than 20 model windmills. The windmill models are based on windmills from several European countries. Henk and June have donated their collection of model windmills to the city of Fulton and the collection will be housed at the new Windmill Cultural Center, located across the street from de Immigrant windmill in downtown Fulton.

The event is free to the public and is handicap accessible. Any questions may be directed to Heidi Kolk at (815) 589-3160.
