Old watermill in Ladbergen.

Old Watermill

Built in 1748, the watermill is located in the heart of the village of Ladbergen and consists of a smaller section on the south side and a larger, later-built section on the north side of the mill stream.

Ralf Schloeffel
The smaller, southern section of the mill, also known as the old "Lütke" or Frenking Mill, dates back to 1748 and was originally built as a Prussian state mill. It was therefore the property of the Prussian state during the reign of Frederick II, which explains the letters FR (Friedericus Rex) carved next to the year. Until the turn of the 20th century, the timber-framed building served as a gristmill and afterwards as a wheelwright's workshop. Today, the southern section houses a vacation apartment.

The newer, northern section of the mill was built in 1890 to replace its demolished predecessor and was equipped with a then-novel turbine drive.

The old village mill remained in operation until the mid-1950s.
