Windmills at Kinderdijk are a network of 19 18th-century windmills with three pump stations that are part of an impressive water-management system in the Netherlands. Located in Kinderdik village in South Holland province, the combination of windmills, pump stations, reservoirs, and dikes control low-lying flood zones in the country. The masterful system is such a great contribution to the world that it has been named a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Visitors to Kinderdijk will find hiking and biking trails that offer picturesque views of the working windmills, plus a Visitors Center and museums dedicated to the windmills.
