The Dutch have used windmills since the 12th century, with their use becoming more widespread in the 15th and 16th centuries. Initially employed for tasks such as draining water from low-lying areas and grinding grain, windmills became a symbol of Dutch innovation and engineering. Today, they are iconic representations of Dutch cultural heritage.

Dutch windmills vary in height, but traditional ones typically range from 15 to 30 meters (49 to 98 feet) tall. Some of the larger industrial windmills can reach heights of up to 50 meters (164 feet) or more. The height is often influenced by their purpose, with milling and pumping windmills being designed to maximize efficiency in harnessing wind energy.
I am sure some windmills were used to grind flour, however the majority were used a pumps to keep the land drained.
