Erprather Mühle, Historic watermill on Erft River in Neuss, Germany

The Erprather Mühle is a watermill on the Erft west of Weckhoven, in Neuss. Milling at this site dates back to the 13th century. The mill now produces breadcrumbs and coatings for food.

The mills at this site on the Erft go back to the 13th century. The present Erprather Mühle is a watermill west of Weckhoven, in the city of Neuss, and it still operates as a mill today, producing breadcrumbs and coatings.

The name Erprather Mühle ties the mill to Erprath, the area west of Weckhoven on the Erft. Milling at this spot is documented back to the 13th century, and the site is still a working mill: it now produces breadcrumbs (Paniermehl) and coatings (Panaden) rather than flour for baking.

The mill stands on the Erft west of Weckhoven, in the western part of Neuss. It is an operating production site making breadcrumbs and coatings, not a museum open to walk-in visitors, so arrange any visit in advance. The Erft riverside path passes the building.

The mill site on the Erft dates back to the 13th century, yet the present operation is not a heritage display: breadcrumbs and breading (Panaden) are made here today. Visitors expecting a museum mill will find a working food-production site instead.
