Somewhere in central Hesse stands this abandoned mill, first mentioned in writing in the 14th century. From the beginning of the 19th century, the mill slowly took on its current form. The last construction work was carried out in the early 1930s. Later, the mill was modernized again and expanded with a silo. Nevertheless, it could not withstand competition from industrial large-scale mills. The operation was discontinued in the early 1990s. Since then, the property has increasingly fallen into disrepair, and the last residents had to leave the mill nearly 10 years ago. As a result, the mill became a typical lost place where time seemed to have stood still. Everything was left behind, and from the furniture to personal belongings and documents to the complete technical equipment of the mill, curious visitors found a eerily beautiful setting. Meanwhile, the mill is in new (and hopefully saving) hands.Somewhere in central Hesse stands this abandoned mill, first mentioned in writing in the 14th century.

Jahrhunderts nahm die Mühle langsam ihre heutige Form an. Die letzten Baumaßnahmen erfolgten Anfang der 30er Jahre des letzten Jahrhunderts. Später wurde die Mühle nochmals modernisiert und um ein Silo erweitert. Dennoch konnte sie dem Wettbewerb mit industriellen Großmühlen nicht standhalten.

In der Folge entwickelte sich die Mühle zu einem typischen lost place in dem die Zeit stehengeblieben zu sein schien. Alles war zurückgelassen worden und von den Möbeln über private Gegenstände und Dokumente bis hin zur kompletten technischen Ausstattung der Mühle fanden Neugierige eine schauerlich schöne Kulisse vor. Inzwischen ist die Mühle in neuen (und hoffentlich rettenden) Händen.
