Hänigser Bockwindmühle

The Hänigsen Post Mill features vertical wooden cladding on both sides, a shingle roof, and operational grinding mechanisms with two milling stations.

Built in 1704 after receiving permission from Duke Georg Wilhelm of Celle, the mill faced opposition from neighboring mill owners in Burgdorf and Uetze.

The mill produces flour for local bakeries to create the traditional Hänser bread, maintaining the connection between milling and local food production.

Visitors can explore the mill during the German Mill Day, held annually on the first Sunday of September, with guided tours available by appointment.

The mill received a perpetual tax exemption certificate in 1705, a privilege that remains legally valid to this present day.
