Bischofsmühle, Watermill in Coesfeld, Germany.
The Bischofsmühle features an overshot water wheel and massive walls reaching one meter in thickness, located along the Honigbach river.
Dating from the 12th century, the mill belonged to the Bishop of Münster before being sold to the Freiherrn von Graes zur Loburg in 1598.
The mill houses a museum displaying agricultural tools, milling equipment, and an exhibition about artist Hety Thier who sought refuge there in 1943.
The facility combines historical milling equipment from 1900 with modern generator technology to produce electricity from water power.
The initiative Bischofsmühle organizes exhibitions, cultural events, lectures, and festivals to maintain this monument in public awareness.
