The name Ry Mølle first appears in 1578. Since then, a lot of written information about Ry Mølle has appeared.
'
The information mainly relates to the farmers' duty to use the mill, the miller's duty to repair the bridges, and the miller's right to fish in the adjacent lakes and eel boxes.

In 1881 the grain mill was shut down and a wood mill was built to produce raw materials for paper production. From 1915, the mill's hydropower was also used to generate electricity. In 1917 Ry Mølles Fabrikker was founded with the aim of leasing and operating Ry Mølle's agriculture, eel fishing, wooden shoe production and power station.

In 1977 Ry Mølle's main building and the old main building were converted into residential buildings.

The beautiful old Dutch gallery mill, Ry Nymølle, is located in the middle of Ry. The mill was built in 1881 as a grain mill when the old Rye Mølle, which stood on the banks of the Gudenå, gave up the grain mill in favor of paper production.

Ry Nymølle was built by miller Andersen. In 1904, a sawmill was established in connection with the mill, and there was also a feed store.

Until 1929, Ry Nymølle was powered by wind energy. In 1929, a 36 hp Nias engine was installed in the mill, which could power both the mill and the sawmill.

Ry Nymølle was operated as a mill until 1977, after which the mill was renovated and used as an architect's office until 2004.

A childhood dream
Since 2004, Ry Nymølle has been privately owned. The owner, Benny Sølvsten, who was born and raised in Ry, fell in love with the mill as a child when he drove to the mill in a horse-drawn carriage to get feed for his chickens. After taking over in 2004, Benny Sølvsten had the mill extensively renovated, both externally and internally. In 2008, he moved into the main building, where he still lives.
