Alteburger Mühle, Historic windmill in Marienburg, Germany.

The Alteburger Mühle stands near the Rhine River, constructed on medieval tower foundations with distinctive architectural features from the late 18th century.

The windmill emerged from a round tower documented in 1209, which belonged to the Roman fleet castle Alteburg and later transformed into a Dutch-style mill after 1782.

The structure evolved from a bone crushing mill to commercial spaces, and now houses the Trade Department of the Polish Consulate General in Cologne.

Located at An der Alteburger Mühle 6, this monument remains accessible to visitors interested in exploring the oldest preserved building in Marienburg.

The mill survived a fire in 1858, wartime destruction, and multiple renovations while maintaining its original medieval tower base through centuries.
