The post mill in Wettmar (near Burgwedel, Hanover region) was first mentioned in 1585, about 430 years ago. The mill was originally located on the northern edge of Wettmar. After operating continuously until 1947, it was used until a few years ago
used for residential purposes. The home club for the parish of Engensen, Thönse, Wettmar (the current owner) began restoring it in 2007. Since the old location in Wettmar was no longer suitable for this, a new one was found on the south-eastern outskirts. in the
The mill was inaugurated in May 2011, and the grinding operation in
Spring 2013 will be resumed. With that she is over
sixty years fully functional again. Their equipment consists of historical mill technology and is an example of both problems
of past mill life as well as future questions of our life (sustainable management, ecology, energy transition, climate catastrophe)
can become a topic.

Detached mill on a hill with a view of the village of Wettmar.
The mill is similar to those from Burgdorf and Hänigsen, it is more of a so-called post mill.
