Egelsbergmühle, Tower windmill on Egelsberg hill in Krefeld, Germany.
The brick tower structure rises 46 meters above sea level, featuring a wooden shingle hood and four blades measuring 19.5 meters in diameter.
The construction of this Dutch-style windmill started in the late eighteenth century, and the mill operated continuously for grain processing until 1942.
The Egelsbergmühle appears on the coat of arms of Traar district, representing the agricultural heritage of the North Rhine-Westphalia region.
The mill opens for public visits during scheduled events, hosting art exhibitions, author readings, and wedding ceremonies throughout the year.
The mill's tower receives evening illumination since 1980, making it visible across the landscape as a regional landmark.
