    The reconstruction of the mill on the Freiheit in Schleswig began in February 2012, the opening of the Dutch mill took place three years later, on Whit Monday 2015 as part of the German Mill Day.

    The Nicola mill is part of a foundation that has set itself the task of preserving the historical cultural monument as a "functioning museum" and making it accessible to the public. In addition, it shows the miller's trade, which has been very common in the north for the past two centuries. The Holländermühle complements the holistic offer of the district "Auf der Freiheit". As a cultural institution, it is reminiscent of the history of the windmills in Schleswig Holstein.

    The historic, refurbished 1861 octagon from Legan was used to rebuild the two-story gallery hollander with venticant and compass rose. The missing parts have been rebuilt according to the original blueprints. The mill contains a complete set-up with a windmill gear and a motor gear, in connection with a Wülfel gear and a hill clutch. A 3 ton "Heckenmüller" backfill mill from 1952 from Itzehoe-Sude is installed in the storage facility.

      In 2022, the Holländermühle Nicola received the honor of being "Germany's best mill".
      Title awarded once a year to just one mill by the
      German Society for Mill Science and Mill Conservation e.V.
      The mill has been an intangible cultural heritage since 2018.
