History

Aalden developed in the Middle Ages on higher sand ground. The oldest part developed around a triangular village green without a church. It was first mentioned in 1332 as Alede. The etymology is unclear. Nowadays, it forms a single urban area with Zweeloo. The Jantina Hellingmolen is a gristmill from 1891 and is still in service on a voluntary basis.
