A watermill once stood here at the Hehlenriede. Now only a sign and an old grinding stone show the location.

The former watermill near Edesbüttel is a historical site that is now mainly characterized by the massive landscape changes of the 20th century (canal construction). If you stand there today, you have to use a little imagination to imagine the old hustle and bustle. There is hardly anything left of the original mill on site today. The site was heavily modified during the construction of the Mittelland Canal (around 1930) and later by the construction of the Elbe Lateral Canal (1970s).
