The Veenmolen is a grain mill in Wilnis in the province of Utrecht.
The mill was built in 1823 and remained in operation until 1947 when an electric motor took over. The owner put his company elsewhere in an electric mill. The municipality of Wilnis bought the mill, which was restored as a quiet monument in 1965. The Stichting de Utrechtse Molens bought the mill in 1971 and in the next two years the mill was restored to a gradual rest. Since then millers milled weekly on a voluntary basis grain in the mill. The ridges are almost 24 meters long and are equipped with the Oudholland wagon system with sailing. The mill has one pair of millstones. 52° 11′ 46″ NB, 4° 54′ 54″ OL
