    The Kumsttonne is now Oerlinghausen's landmark. The stump of a former windmill, built on the Tönsberg in the 18th century, can still be seen.

      Stump of an old windmill built around 1750. THE landmark of Oerlinghausen.

        From the very beginning, the current windmill stump, popularly known as the "Kumsttonne" (from "Kumst" for "cabbage"), proved to be a complete misinvestment. Around 1750, a certain Amtsrat Ramus from the Lippe Rent Chamber in Detmold came up with the idea of building a mill on the Tönsberg, apparently as part of an economic stimulus program for West Lippe.
