The Lords of Bothmer originally owned a watermill on the right bank of the Leine.

Because it obstructed shipping on the Leine, it was demolished in 1822 on the condition that a Dutch windmill be built on the same site. This mill was intended to have two grinding mills, one for barley and one for oil. The mill burned down in 1930 and was rebuilt in 1932. It was severely damaged during World War II. It was restored in the 1980s and 1990s. Tours are possible on Mill Days and by appointment.

North of Schwarmstedt, between Bothmer and Gilten, is the Bothmer gallery-Dutch windmill. At this point, on the right bank of the Leine, the Lords of Bothmer once owned a watermill. However, because it hindered shipping, it was torn down in 1822 on the condition that a windmill would be built in the same place. From the 16th century onwards, the Dutch windmills replaced the previously widespread post mills.
The Bothmer windmill, with its massive brick substructure and a hull clad in wooden shingles, burned down in 1930 and was rebuilt in 1932. It was badly damaged in the Second World War. After extensive renovation work in the 1980s and 90s, it is now fully functional again.
In Bothmer, a visit to the school museum is also worthwhile.
