Kornmühle Wegberg-Tüschenbroich
Kornmühle Wegberg-Tüschenbroich, Historical watermill in Tüschenbroich, Germany
The Kornmühle Wegberg-Tüschenbroich sits beside a pond below Tüschenbroich Castle and features a traditional wooden waterwheel for grinding grain. Water flowing from above powered the wheel, which turned the grinding stones inside.
The building was constructed in the 14th and 15th centuries when the lords of Tüschenbroich established it as a compulsory grinding facility. This monopoly on milling generated significant income for the castle authorities.
The mill served as a gathering place where local farmers brought their grain and interacted with one another regularly. It anchored the economic and social rhythm of the village for centuries.
The location is easy to find and accessible right by the water, offering a pleasant visit with views of the structure. A restaurant now operates at the site, allowing visitors to experience the historical setting in a relaxed way.
The waterwheel could operate two grinding stones at the same time, making it unusually powerful for its era. This ability to mill two stones simultaneously set this facility apart from many other mills in the region.
