Aumühle, Historical watermill in Moers, Germany.
The Aumühle stands on the renovated Moersbach River, featuring a large water wheel measuring ten meters in length and six meters in width.
First documented in 1591 on Johannes Mercator's map as 'Vol mull', the mill served as part of a defense system controlling water levels in Moers castle moats.
The mill preserves traditional grain processing methods and offers educational programs about bread making for school groups and visitors.
Following extensive restoration work in 2007, the mill building now functions as a residence while maintaining its operational grinding mechanism.
The mill's water regulation system could flood surrounding fields during wartime, forming an integral part of Moers' medieval defense strategy.
