    Very nice historical mill and the landmark of Artlenburg.
    Carl Brügmann put the first mill into operation here in 1833. She became a victim of the flames due to the brakes running hot in a storm in 1889 and was soon rebuilt.
    The current octagonal Dutch windmill stands on a square raw brick base. It is still owned and operated by the Brügmann family. Since 1954 it has been working almost exclusively on electricity, since the windmill has finally had its day. Today the Artlenburger Mühlenverein takes care of the Dutch mill.
    Visits are possible on request from H. J. Brügmann on Tel. 04139-7043.

      "The villages on the southern bank of the Elbe between Artlenburg and Barförde belonged to the Duchy of Lauenburg until 1816. As a" relic "of this time, Artlenburg and Hohnstorf were still" banned "to the Lauenburg mill until 1830 (sa Hittbergener mill, No. 6) However, it was not possible to reach flood level in 1833. Mueller Carl Brügmann commissioned the Dutch mill built in Artlenburg in 1833. Hot brakes caused the mill to burn down during a storm in 1889. The current mill with its quadrangular shape became parts of a water scoop Since 1932, an electric motor supported the wind drive, from 1954 he took over the drive completely and only in 1994. After a comprehensive restoration with the help of founded in 1996 Windmühlenverein Artlenburg today stands a fully functioning windmill behind the dike at the Mouth of the Elbe-Seiten-Canal into the Elbe.
