Seifersdorfer Mühle

Seifersdorfer Mill is a milling complex along the Rote Weißeritz river with structures for grain processing and sawing operations that expanded over centuries. The residence and work buildings sit together, showing how family and industrial production were integrated in one place.

It was first documented in 1501 and remained in operation for nearly 500 years under different family ownership. The site shifted from traditional milling to furniture production in the later 1900s before closing in 1996.

The mill reflects how water power and craftsmanship shaped daily life in this Saxon village for centuries. It demonstrates the connection between industrial work and the community that depended on such facilities.

The building is now privately owned and can only be viewed from outside, with no public access to the interior. Its location along the river makes it easy to find when exploring the surrounding area.

In the early 1900s, a wooden box factory operated on the same grounds alongside the grain mill. This expansion shows how traditional mills adapted to new business opportunities of the time.
