    The grain windmill in Bad Bederkesa, built in 1881, stands on a 31 meter high ridge above the town. As an "earth and gallery Dutchman" with a wind rose, it automatically places the mill hood and thus the wings in the wind. This makes this windmill one of the most modern types of windmill.

    There are two old, still functional grinding aisles on the grinding floor, one powered by wind power and one powered by electricity.


    The individual mill floors can be climbed up to a balcony on the mill hood. From here you can enjoy a wonderful view of the town, the lake and the northern German landscape.

    Until 1990 the mill was still run by a miller. Since then, the Bederkesa Beautification Association has looked after the building, which is a listed building.

      At the windmill on the southern edge of Bad Bederkesa begins the Beerster Padd, a very beautiful circular walk. Next to the mill is an old oven where sometimes butter cake and bread are baked on weekends.

        Nice vantage point over the area. A tour is also possible. But only for very few opening times. Wednesdays and Fridays between 3pm and 5pm. And on Sundays 2-5pm.
