    Only the foundation walls of the house in which the grinder was housed remain. Opposite the house is a small quarry stone house as the only remaining remnant of a larger building from the 19th century.

      The former oil mill is located in the Tiefenbach valley between Dedenborn and Kesternich, a little away from Dedenborn.
      The facility consists of a 3-storey house from the 17th century (quarry stone) with a 2-storey annex on the left. In front of the house is a wooden crucifix from the 1st half of the 19th century. Only the foundation walls of the house in which the grinder was housed are preserved. Opposite the house is a small stone house as the only remaining part of a larger building from the 19th century.
      As it is privately owned, a visit is not possible.

        In the 17th century, beechnut and other edible oils were produced in the oil mill. The quarry stone building complex, which is now privately owned, consists of a residential building and a two-storey extension. A wooden cross from the first half of the 19th century stands in front of the house.
