Wall-Holländer (small earthen wall) from probably 1731 with right-turning sail wings and milling mechanism. Original equipment (2 grinding gears) and a functioning motorized grist mill gear are present.

The Todtenhausen windmill (Großenheider Königsmühle; Mill Route No. 12), not to be confused with the second windmill in Todtenhausen (Valentinsmühle; Mill Route No. 11), is a Dutch windmill with a slightly conical quarry stone tower and a small earthen rampart, probably built in 1731. The Großenheider mill is one of three, once four, still existing Königsmühlen in the Minden-Lübbecke district, all of which were built in the first third of the 18th century. It has belonged to the Beckemeier miller family since 1851. In 1922 an electric motor was installed, in 1951 it was converted to motor operation, and in 1954 commercial milling was stopped. The electric drive is still functional today, and the original wind drive is still largely "in standstill".
