High chestnut trees shade the Holxer Mühlenhof, whose courtyard borders on his 1816 residence and his small, iron-framed mill building dating from 1825, while a 19th-century bakery is set back somewhat. A stone bridge with an adjacent ford crosses the Hardau just below the mill, while visitors from the cobblestone street, which leads to the edge of the Hardautales to Suderburg, approach the mill. After a few steps you are here in front of the mighty, undershot waterwheel, under which the steel creek flows into the Hardau, so that the mill is located on two "rushing streams". In 1321 this mill was first mentioned, which was used as a grain, Grütz, and Bakemühle. Probably until the 1920s, she had two mill wheels, and until 1950, the mill worked only with water power. Then the miller stopped operating. The mill equipment was preserved, but fell into the aftermath of the waterwheel. In 1983, the owner renovated the mill, she got a new water wheel and can be put into operation again for grinding demonstrations.
