The Kremer Mühle is a memorial in Simonskall, Hürtgenwald municipality, Düren district.
The smelter Simon Kremer built the Kremer-Hof, the so-called castle, in 1643. The mill was built in 1622. She worked until the 1920s. After that it was used to generate electricity for street lighting and the house.
It is a quarry stone building on an almost square floor plan with a hipped roof. The walls have small wooden stick windows. There is a small extension under the towed pent roof. The suspension of the overshot mill wheel and the upper ditch are still there.
The former mill is now used as a residential building.
The Kremer mill was entered under No. 18 on August 11, 1983 in the list of architectural monuments in Hürtgenwald.

The Kremer Mühle is one of the most beautiful houses in Simonskall.
Here you always feel a little back in time - certainly due to the somewhat remote location but also due to the beautiful old buildings.

The Kremer mill was built in 1622. The name of the building and the town of Simonskall is derived from the smelter Simon Kremer, who ran an ironworks in the nearby Zweifallshammer.
