Bolter Mühle

Bolter Mühle is a two-story brick mill on the southeastern shore of Lake Müritz with a distinctive southern gable. The building houses historic gears from 1890 and now functions as holiday accommodation and an event space with rotating art displays.

The Johanniter Order of Mirow founded the mill in 1665, making it one of the region's oldest secular buildings. It served as a grain processing center for many decades before later being repurposed for other uses.

The mill reflects the region's working traditions and shows how water-powered mills shaped daily life for generations. Today visitors can observe the mechanical systems that once powered grain production and understand the place's importance to local communities.

The mill sits beside the Bolter lock in Boek and is easily accessible to water sports enthusiasts and hikers. Since it now serves as accommodation and an event venue, some areas may not always be open to the general public.

The water wheel was restored between 2013 and 2015 and operates today as a demonstration wheel at the intersection of water routes and hiking trails. This blend of preserved machinery and active meeting point for various visitors creates something memorable.
