The Dutch colonists in Batavia built at least four wind-powered sawmills around the Bay of Batavia, many years after founding Batavia (now Jakarta) in 1619, but these were not entirely successful. People and animals (water buffalo) powered mills also and previously (introduced by the Chinese). Out of about 25 Dutch-designed mills in the area, their water-powered mills were the most successful. Specifically, around 1675 a first wind-powered sawmill was built on the island of De Kuyper (now Pulu Burung) to support the Onrust Island (Pulu Kapal) dockyard that repaired Dutch East India Company ships. By 1685 there were two built in Onrust and around 1705 another was built on the island of Edam (Pulu Damar.{{cite journal|url=https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/07341510701616915 |title=Technologies of a trading empire: Dutch introduction of water- and windmills in early-modern Asia, 1650s–1800 |author=Peter Boomgaard |journal=History and Technology|volume=24 |date=2008 |issue=1 |pages=41–59|doi=10.1080/07341510701616915 |s2cid=83903098 }}

All four were destroyed by British bombardment on 9 November 1800. Under Napoleon, the Dutch nation which was named the Batavian Republic from 17xx to 18xx) had become part of the French empire, and Batavia in the East Indies was included. The bombardment was near the end of the War of the Second Coalition that pitted Britain and almost all of Europe against the First French Republic. This must have been part of the East Indies theatre of the French Revolutionary Wars.

Virtually every small town and polder in the Netherlands has one or more windmills. The Zaanstreek alone has had over a thousand industrial windmills, each with a name and well-documented history (see list of windmills at Zaanse Schans). Other well-known windmills are the windmills at Kinderdijk.
