If you start the Tönsberg from the Oerlinghausen old town, you have to turn on the cobbled Tönsbergstraße above the church and then keep to the right. After approx. 75-100 meters, turn right onto the cobbled street, which is also cobbled. As soon as the cobblestone pavement turns into a tarred road, you have a view of the Kumsttonne, an old windmill stump.

On the Tönsberg (334 meters above sea level) in Oerlinghausen is this windmill stump.
It is the landmark of the city of Oerlinghausen that can be seen from afar.
The mill from 1753 lost its wings in a storm and remained in this condition on the mountain. The name Kumsttonne derives from white cabbage (Kumst = sauerkraut) and the windmill stump reminds of a cooking vessel.
