Wilhelm-Busch-Mühle, Historical watermill and museum in Ebergötzen, Germany
The Wilhelm-Busch-Mühle functions as both a working watermill and museum, demonstrating traditional grain grinding techniques through its preserved iron mechanisms and water wheel.
Between 1841 and 1845, German artist Wilhelm Busch spent his formative years at this mill, where he developed a friendship with miller's son Erich Bachmann.
The experiences at this mill influenced Wilhelm Busch to create Max und Moritz, a illustrated story that became fundamental to German children's literature.
The museum welcomes visitors from Tuesday through Sunday, with guided tours available between 10:30 and 13:00, then from 14:00 to 16:30.
The mill maintains its original grinding mechanism, allowing visitors to witness the complete process of grain transformation into flour using water power.
