The windmill Weßling was built in 1840 by Bernhard Büscher and is the landmark of the district Hamminkeln. Her wing cross can be seen from afar. The "kink" after about three quarters of the total height is striking and unusual.The shape makes the mill building look very slender and elegant.A bakery was added in 1900. In 1932 a wind-troop destroyed the "wind rose". A repair was not made.

The windmill cannot be visited as it is now used as a residence. I think it's great that it's still useful. 👍
