The Delkenmühle is located north of Varensell also on the course of the new Ölbach. The listed building was built in 1725 and originally had a large unterschlächtiges waterwheel, which was later replaced by two water wheels of different sizes. After the mill was shut down, the building no longer had a mill wheel, and in the 1990s it was restored and the original mill wheel restored. In the reconstruction helped parts of the old mill wheels, which could be found in the silt of the Ölbach.
