    An authentic reconstruction of the last productive Rhine ship mill offers interesting and fascinating insights into the technology and working conditions of bygone times. Unfortunately, it can only be visited by appointment by phone or through the tourist information office.

    In Ginsheim, ship mills were anchored in the Rhine for several centuries, and milling was a veritable industry.

        Interesting. Grain grind with hydropower. Schiffsmühle.

            historic Rhine ship mill Ginsheim

            For several centuries, ship mills worked in the Rhine stream off Ginsheim. Up to 21 of these floating small grain processing companies were anchored here at the same time before they had to give way to the emerging industrialization and growing shipping traffic.

            Today, the authentic reconstruction of the last productive Rhine ship mill offers interesting and exciting insights into the technology and working conditions of bygone times.

                  I really do not understand it: On the one hand, the historic ship mill, which is always worth a visit and then present the innumerable photos the most private things.

                      Very interesting structure, a mill on the water. Information on the Internet, of course, but seeing it live is also nice. Benches nearby, and open on Monument Open Day (2nd Sunday in September)

                        Open Rhine ramp ship mill. Interesting mill reconstruction. You can also visit in the afternoon from the inside. At this ramp anyone can water his favorite toy :-).
