The Zeldenrust (formerly De Zwaluw (English: The Swallow)) is a windmill on the Kruisstraat in the Dutch city of Oss. It is a round stone smock mill that functions as a grist mill. It was in use up until the end of the 1950s. It was later sold to the municipality of Oss in 1971. A campaign, stichting De Osse Molen (English: The Oss Mill foundation), was launched in 1974 to restore the mill to working condition. The campaign was successfully funded in 1975, and restoration was completed on 24 February 1978.
The windmill sail is of Old Hollandic design. The mill contains three pairs of millstones. It is generally open to the public on Saturdays.
