Behind a right-hand bend, you will find yourself in front of a few remnants of the wall and fortunately in front of a detailed information board. Here was a watermill, popularly called the "Tütgemühle". Built in 1849 as a flour mill, in operation until 1925 and demolished in 1978. If you turn around, you can see the former mill ponds, which collected the water for the operation.

The remains of the Tütgemühle and the old mill pond are fascinating to look at.
A plaque explains the history of the Tütgemühle.

The water mill in the Furlbach valley was built in 1849 by August Bödeker as a grain mill and was popularly known as the Tütgemühle. The mill was in operation until around 1925. Then a new motor-driven mill was built by the miller at the time on the Holzkämperschen Kolonat* (today REWE)). Since then, the Tütgemühle has been called “Alte Mühle”. In 1951, the parents of the Sudbrackschule in Bielefeld converted it into a country school dormitory. Since about 1939, the land has belonged to the waterworks of the city of Bielefeld as a water protection area" **
