Tips
The Dettumer mill is over 150 years old and one of the last mills in the district that is still in working condition. On the German mill day, which takes place every year at Pentecost, the mill can even be visited in operation.
The mill is a listed building. Access to and access to the mill has so far been clearly signposted, and it is not possible to reach the site via Bahnhofstrasse, as assumed, but via Beekedamm.translated by

The post mill was built in 1863 and is 150 years old. It was built by the carpenter Chr. Roßmann was in the family for a very long time. On New Year's Eve 1961/62, it was badly damaged by a northeast storm. In 1976, the "Circle of Friends for the Preservation of the Dettum Windmill" began to repair it. Since 1978, the mill has been shown in operation every year on the "Open Day".
