    The Dutch windmill in Alt Tellin dates back to 1765. It belongs to the type of smock mill, whose name comes from the fact that the six or eight sides of the windmill are very reminiscent of a smock, as it was worn by farmers in the past. It is almost completely preserved, only the small wheel for the wind direction is missing.

      You can't get directly to the mill - everything is overgrown and fenced.

        The Alt Telliner Mill (Gallerieholländer) is the only mill, apart from the Neubukow Mill, that still has the remains of what was once the most efficient blade system in historical mill construction - Bilausche Ventikanten. These originally came from the Niendorf Mill on the Elbe. The blades were brought here in 1954 and installed at great expense. But the effort was not worth it. Due to the chronic shortage of materials, no one could maintain the blades. From 1960 onwards, the mill only worked with the connected electric motor for the production of mixed feed for the local LPG. Over time, the wind gradually tore off parts of the blades and the cladding. After production ended in 1990, the mill, patched up with sheet metal, presented a pitiful picture. But it was possible to repair the outside - it got its shingle cladding back. Fortunately, attempts to move the mill or set up a restaurant were dashed... Today it is the only windmill with completely preserved milling technology in the region around Demmin.
        An enthusiast - who will take care of the mill - is wanted.
