      The water mill in Oldendorf can only be visited on the edge. The trail, which originally ran through the mill site, was diverted through the village. Why I do not know.

      "Like a moated castle stands the Oldendorf mill in Luhetal, after all, during the Thirty Years' War, it was temporarily the headquarters of Tilly, a mill that had been listed since 1511. It was a grain, bake and fulling mill and belonged to the church in Amelinghausen the factory was then extended by a sawmill and received its first turbine in 1919. Its multi-storey brick buildings, built in 1936, today house one of the last active water mills in the Lüneburg Heath The mother of the current owner, Else Engel, was one of the first female miller-assistants The mill has been converted into a modern, fully-automated farm specialized in the production of whole-grain and specialty products, as well as an ancillary branch of the mill: the Oldendorf mill is owned by a group of producers that produce the most appropriate livestock Even today, two turbines produce approximately one-third of the mill's total energy needs.

      A visit is probably no longer possible.
