The area around the Messlingen windmill is freely accessible at all times. Outside of the regular grinding and baking days (see mill calendar), the mill and the associated buildings can also be viewed from the outside. There are plenty of tables and benches for cyclists looking for a rest.

The Messlinger Mühle has been turning its wings to the wind for over 175 years. This special event could hardly be celebrated in 2013 if the general die-off of the mills in the 1970s had also affected the Messlinger mill. As a "disgrace" to the environment, the mill narrowly escaped demolition in 1975 after grinding operations had ceased. The district of Minden-Lübbecke considered preserving and restoring the mills. The Messlinger mill was also restored and renewed from the ground up. Today, the Messlinger Mühle shines again in its old glory.
