With a few fortunate exceptions, they are rarely used in their original function today, but often serve only as technical and historical monuments to a long tradition of craftsmanship: Powered solely by the power of the wind, the heavy millstones inside were moved, thus, for example, grinding grain into flour (so-called grain mills) or pressing oil from fruits (e.g., olives) (so-called oil mills). Thus, these old windmills are the best proof that people were clever enough to harness the power of the wind several centuries ago – long before the discovery of electricity and the inventions that followed it.

As in probably every other profession, there are also a few so-called “black sheep” among the many honorable millers in the milling trade. In this context, the popular children's book author Otfried Preußler recounts the following short episode in "The Flight to Egypt": "And they didn't even get all the way to Klostergrätz that evening, but there was a mill on their way, the Klostermühle, where they lodged until the next morning. At first, the Klostermühlen miller was almost shocked when the Imperial and Royal Gendarmerie suddenly knocked on his door: There had been some disputes with a customer last week over a few sacks of milling material, which had inexplicably disappeared from the mill here [...] but it could have been that he was reported for it anyway - and now they're coming for him... so, of course, all the disputed sacks of milling material immediately fell from the Klostermühlen's mind, just as [Sergeant] Hawlitschek was now simply requesting a place to stay for the night."

Every year the place surprises with different characters - awesome!

Impressive mill mechanics restored: After the mill ceased operation in the 1940s. v. It was discontinued in the 19th century and has been operational again since the early 1980s. The mill still has the former, functional wooden mechanics - worth seeing! Flour is ground at each demonstration. For demonstration purposes it is powered by a motor when there is little wind - otherwise by wind power.

If it runs you can visit and ask everything. Very nicely done.

Visitable in season, you can even buy flour made on site.

Nice marsh, you can see many swans there!

Old wooden windmill!
