    Alfers Mill is a dam and former watermill on the Berkel. Here, as in many other places on the Berkel, "the bather" can be seen.

    Water mills are the oldest human power machines that are independent of muscle power. Alfers' mill also has a long history. With the power of the Berkel water, grain was originally ground here, oil was struck, wood was sawn and electricity was also produced. Today the mill is inhabited privately and is not available for tours.
