    The beautiful Wyker windmill in the mill street is privately owned and unfortunately can not be visited. It is a gallery Dutch windmill with the well-sounding name "Venti Amica". It was built in 1879, then still on the outskirts, today it is located approximately in the city center.

        Nowadays, they are rarely used for their original purpose, but are often just technical and historical monuments to a long tradition of craftsmanship: the heavy millstones inside were moved using the power of the wind as the driving force, for example to grind grain into flour (so-called grain mills) or to press oil from fruits (e.g. olives) (so-called oil mills). These old windmills are therefore the best proof that people were clever enough to harness the power of the wind a number of centuries ago - long before the discovery of electricity and the inventions that followed.
