Before the current Dutch windmill was built in 1819, the first Dutch windmill in the region was built around 50 meters away in 1752. This was built by the squire Langwerth von Simmern. After the first mill burned down in 1795, the new building was initiated in 1819 because the landlord was threatened with the withdrawal of his milling license. However, the new building led to complaints from the master builder because the horses shied away on the Hanover-Minden highway (now the B 65). That is why it was moved to its current location in 1824. In 1835 the Weber family became tenants of the mill, which from 1873 also owns it. The mill tower, which consists of six floors, was built from Deister sandstone and has a gallery typical of this type of mill. The mill can be used at events such as B. the mill day or the discovery day of the region can be visited.

Nice to look at not only for mill fans.

It's worth a visit.
