The H-Darrieus rotor is a wind turbine with a vertical axis of rotation. The test facility, often mistaken for a transmission tower, is no longer in operation. Visible from afar, it is a good landmark in the Coesfeld-Darup Heights.

Unfortunately, it doesn't say anywhere what it is. However, it is a prominent waypoint and curious to look at.

This is an H-Darrieus rotor. Very nicely described on Wikipedia: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darrieus-Rotor?wprov=sfti1#
