The Gitstapper mill was first mentioned in 1377 and belonged to the Lord of Vlodrop. The freedoms in Wassenberger Land benefited the Gitstapper Mühle, because the Gitstapper Müller from the money market was allowed to fetch his grain on the Jülich side unhindered.

A visit to the mill from the first half of the 18th century is definitely worth it.
Nice mill with a small shop on the first floor.
