Vehlefanz Post Mill

Highlight • Monument

Around 150 years ago, there were well over 2000 post mills in our region. One of the last post mills is in the Vehlefanz district. In the middle of meadows and fields, it is almost in the original state it was in when it was built in 1815.

It was used as a grain mill until 1945 and as a grist mill until 1965, before being listed as a technical monument of old craftsmanship in 1977.

From 1991 to 2007, it served as an exhibition space on the history of windmills in our region and was on display at the Oranienburg District Museum.

At the beginning of 2007, a safety inspection of the Vehlefanz post mill was carried out. It was determined that the mill was no longer stable. Extensive renovation work took place until October 2010.

Since 2011, the post mill has been open to visitors during the season (April - October) as an architectural monument and contemporary witness to mill history.

Schwante Castle was built between 1741 and 1743 by an unknown architect under the ownership of landowner Erasmus Wilhelm von Redern and his wife Catherina Elisabeth von Bredow. In 1888, Friedrich August Richard Sommer, builder of Sommerswalde Castle, acquired the property. After his death, the castle came into the possession of Vicco Karl Alexander von Bülow-Schwante. After 1945, it served as a makeshift hospital and later as an educational center for the FDJ. In 2009, after a long period of vacancy, the Hexenkessel Hoftheater und Strand GmbH became the owner and has used it as a theater ever since.

In 2019, the property was resold to a married couple of art dealers and collectors, who live there and offer smaller public events. In June 2020, a sculpture park opened in the 20-hectare palace gardens with works by Hans Arp, Martin Creed, Tony Cragg, Björn Dahlem, Dan Graham, Carsten Nicolai, George Rickey and Ai Weiwei.

Definitely worth it. Nearby is a castle with a sculpture park, an old water tower and a post mill.

May 1, 2026,Mühlensee 🔄 Vehlefanz 🌞
After a visit to the HB workshops in Marwitz, we want to make the most of the beautiful day. Vehlefanz is not far, so the Mühlensee is ideal and there is a parking lot at the windmill - free of charge.
The two-story post mill was built in 1815 and has been a mill museum since 1991. Since the mill …

A bitterly cold day and off to Vehlefanz in the Brandenburg winter. ❄️ We circled the Mühlensee for the first time, gaining wonderful impressions of the wintry natural spectacles, but also seeing a few structural highlights such as Gut Schwante and the water tower.
All in all a great tour through feverish nature that leads completely around the lake. One …

The circular route is not demanding at all. The part of the path along the lake is very beautiful, as part of it also leads over a jetty. After that it goes more or less along the road and the nearby motorway is everywhere.

The path along the Mühlensee lake and over the footbridges is very beautiful. The section around the large greenhouses is a bit long, but you can enjoy a nice refreshment at the garden restaurant there.

Circled the Mühlensee in the best weather. I'm by car, exit Oberkrämer, to Weinbergstr. and started from there. Parking lots available.
From Berlin it is 40 minutes.
S-Bahn Finkenkrug or Bhf. Brieselang - who comes without a car.

Something different than through the forest, with a lot of sun and a great view 🧐🤗

Perfect weather for a walk around the lakes at Vehlefanz and Schwante. Great path, partly over planks. Unfortunately we just had to walk around an industrial estate. We didn't know that area at all.
