    Wall-Holländer from 1873 (original blueprint is still preserved) with two sail and two blind wings. The windmill was built in 1873 as a successor to a ship mill and a post mill. The mill tower was built of masonry and plastered bricks on a quarry stone base. After 1921, an electric motor was added as an additional drive. There are three grinders and a trieur (cleaning machine). The grist gear is motor-driven, and a grinding gear with bag box is still functional by wind or motor drive.
