Dit pand uit 1671 is vernoemd naar een van de vorige bewoners, de diplomaat Cornelis van der Mijle, schoonzoon van Johan van Oldenbarnevelt. Van 1747 tot De Franse Tijd was het pand in gebruik als het logement voor de steden Hoorn, Monnickendam, Medemblik, Edam en Purmerend, die er hun vertegenwoordigers bij de vergadering van de Staten van Holland onderbrachten. In 1749 is het Huis Van der Mijle grondig verbouwd. Er kwam een extra etage en de voorgevel kreeg zijn huidige aanzicht. Eind jaren '70 is het huis gerestaureerd. Momenteel maakt het pand deel uit van het gebouwencomplex van de Raad van State.
