"The Langendonk Mill was built on the left (Gelderland) bank of the Niers, east of Grefrath-Vinkrath, on a donk (small hillock in the middle of marshland). It is located in a section of the Niers lowlands designated as the "Grasheide and Mühlhausener Benden" nature reserve. It presumably once belonged to Haus Langendonk, a knight's seat located about 50 meters south of the mill. According to topographical maps, Haus Langendonk disappeared between 1844 (Prussian original survey) and 1892 (Prussian re-survey). Only the remains of walls indicate the former location (Kremers 1992, p. 54).
