In 1912 Bredemehe was incorporated into the neighboring Alfstedt. After the Mehe was straightened in 1968, the mill ceased operations. Subsequently, after renovation work, the mill was used by young people as a party room from 1979 onwards.

In 2003 the De Möhl association was founded and thoroughly renovated the mill. In 2004 the inauguration took place on the German Milling Day .
