Watermill "Liesebach's mill" in Räbke
The place Räbke on the Elm has a special meaning for the mill history of the Braunschweiger area. Over the centuries 7, at times even 8 water mills with different functions have worked in this village at the same time. In 1235, the monks of the Helmstedt St. Ludgeri Monastery had the place pulled through by a trench branching off the Schunter, which later drove 6 mills.
The local Liesebach mill was commissioned on 14th September 1236 as the Erbzinsmühle of the St. Ludgeri monastery. In contrast to most of the Räbker mills, which had many functions over the centuries, this mill has always been a flour mill with only one meal over a long time.
In 1864, the miller Ernst Ludwig Raddecke was called, as the daughter of the Müller Dormann from the mill Heinsen near Hameln married, who made the first modernizations of the mill technology. In 1905, the miller Franz Liesebach bought the mill and had it extended by installing 2 roll-up chairs. In 1937, further modifications were made by the Helmstedt mill construction company Nickel. After the Second World War, the miller Richard Liesebach let the technology by installing machines from the mill Hardach in Melle b. Osnabrück expand again, but already at the end of 1954, the operation. Richard Liesebach died in 1996, his wife Hermine Liesebach continued to work hard for the maintenance of the yard and mill plant and has for some time been supported by the "Räbker Förderverein Mühle Mühle Liesebach e.V.".
In 2008, the mill was provided with a new waterwheel, which has since been u. a. also the power generation serves. The completely preserved mill technology has been restored in 2010 to run.

The Liesebach watermill was an overshot watermill in Räbke in the Helmstedt district that was powered by the Schunter mill ditch. From 1236 until it ceased operations in 1954, it worked primarily as a grain mill. Today, after restoration, the watermill is looked after by a local support association. It is located in a four-sided courtyard on the edge of the village, which has been a listed building ensemble since 1993. The mill is a station on the Lower Saxony Mill Road and is the only one remaining of eight former water mills in Räbke. (Source: de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wassermühle_Liesebach)
