Bardenberger Mühle

Bardenberger Mühle is a watermill building on the Wurm River in Würselen that originally ground grain and pressed oil. The main structure features several water wheels and operational areas that now serve as an event space and hotel with accompanying rooms.

The mill was first recorded in 1566 as a ducal property of Jülich serving local farming communities. After centuries of operation it was converted to a hotel and restaurant in 1972.

The name reflects its location along a stream that served craftspeople and farmers for generations. Today the building still mirrors this working tradition and shows how people once used water as an energy source for their livelihoods.

The building sits directly on the Wurm River, making it easy to reach from the waterside. Visitors should know that today it primarily serves as an event venue and hotel, so experiences depend on current programming and availability.

The mill operated with three undershot water wheels that processed grain until 1900 in this region. The technology of these wheels was advanced for its time and allowed it to handle larger grain quantities than many competitors.
