The mill was built in 1817 on a small, windy hill southeast of the town. After a fire in 1835 it was rebuilt. The mill was owned by the Kampe family for six generations until 1980. Between 1987 and 1991 the mill was extensively restored. Supervision is provided by the Danstedt mill association.
The mill is fully functional and is put into operation on special occasions such as the German Mill Day.

Whit Monday is German Mill Day. Therefore, the popular Mill Festival traditionally takes place at Whitsun. We were here on Whitsun Sunday and saw and learned a lot about the Danstedt post mill. A very nice gentleman told us the whole history of the mill, which was very interesting. Once a year, flour is still milled here, which is then used for the Mill Festival, for example, for freshly baked bread or delicious sugar cake. You can buy all of this here. The sugar cake is truly delicious and inexpensive.
