Wesermühlen

Wesermühlen is an architectural complex of milling structures, silos, and industrial facilities stretching along the Weser River promenade. The ensemble combines production areas with residential spaces, revealing how work and daily life were closely intertwined in the past.

The site developed during industrialization as an important grain processing center for the region. Milling operations shaped Hamelin's economy and landscape for generations.

The name reflects the mills that once operated here along the river and shaped the town's identity. Visitors can still observe how work and living spaces were integrated, with production areas directly connected to residential quarters.

The complex sits directly on the Weser River promenade and is easily visible from the riverbank. Plan to spend time exploring the different building types and how they are arranged together.

The northern silo area keeps its original function as an energy storage facility while also showing how historic structures adapt to modern needs. This dual purpose makes the site a living example of how old industry continues to work.
