ZUIDMOLENSTRAAT



In Bergen op Zoom there are many sculptures, statues and statuettes, old ones and new ones, old new ones and new old ones...This little angel (?) doesn't seem to bother, too busy as it is carrying a considerable weight, almost too busy to be felt spotted.





Zuidmolen means south mill. In this case zuidmolen is a corruption of zandmolen (sand mill). The mill after which the street is called was situated on a sand hill in the heart of town.
