In 2000, Radio Lippe called on its listeners to calculate the geographical center of Lippe. It turned out that this is on the site of the local mill. So a tree was planted on the spot by the district administrator Heuwinkel and the head of the cadastral office Peters with the inscription "Centre Lippes".

Hiking

The holiday hike through the Passade valley led to the geological center of the former "Principality" Lippe. It is located on the grounds of the Ortmühle - that's what the listeners of Radio Lippe have calculated The watermill was built in 1709 as a grain and oil mill and has been a place for excursions since the mill died out in the 1950s.
