The sand mill is the last former grain mill in the south of Duisburg. It stands in the corner of Angerbach and Bruchgraben on a sandy ridge that gave it its name. The archaeological finds go back to the 11th century. The building has its origins in a high medieval aristocratic residence from the 12th century. The "sand moelen" was first mentioned in documents in 1448. Today's mill building was built in several construction phases over a period of around 700 years.

The historical history of the sandmill is very well described on notice boards and is always worth a trip for a photo.

"... The sand mill is one of the most interesting buildings in Duisburg! The location at the foot of the post-glacial sand dune (Heidberg) gave the grain mill its name. The sand mill (sant moelen) first appeared in a document in 1448. In the document, Hermann von Winkelhausen declared his property rights of the sand mill. At the same time, it is stated that these rights had already been "given to Hermann's parents and ancestors".
