Best Hikes to Berndt Windmill (Berndt-Mühle)

Tips

  • The oldest of the Oderwitz post windmills was built in 1787 at the current location. By the end of World War II, the owner had changed 6 times. The Berndt family owned the mill the longest (for 3 generations). Hence the name "Berndt Mill". In 1947, the resettlers, the Hauck couple, bought the mill and converted it to combined wind and electric power. This meant that work could continue even when there was no wind.

  • A literary monument - albeit rather bizarre in the context of the story - is the Spanish author Miguel de CERVANTES, who commemorates the windmills with which our ancestors harnessed the energy of the wind centuries ago to move the large and heavy millstones : In one episode, his tragic novel hero DON QUIXOTE, the "knight of the sad figure", wants to defeat her in a duel in the belief that he is fighting against giants with four arms.
