Siegfriedmühle, Historical gristmill in Xanten, Germany.

The seven-story brick tower mill features a wooden gallery on the third floor and extends over 25 meters with its sail gate wings.

Built in 1744 as a corn mill, the structure received a steam engine addition in 1854 to supplement wind power during low-wind periods.

The mill stands as part of the LVR Archaeological Park Xanten, representing the evolution of grain processing methods in the Lower Rhine region.

The ground floor now contains a restaurant for visitors, while the upper levels maintain the original miller living quarters and milling sections.

The structure earned the nickname Xantener Kaffeemühle due to its shape resembling a manual coffee grinder common in German households.
