from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Brietzer Mühle is a residential area in the Brietz district of the Hanseatic city of Salzwedel in the Altmark district of Salzwedel in Saxony-Anhalt .

geography

The small settlement of Brietzer Mühle is four kilometers northwest of Salzwedel. To the north of it lie the Brietz ponds, four large lakes with shallow waters. They emerged from clay mining as brick oaks and have been redesigned in a natural way since the late 1990s. This created a wetland habitat for migratory and breeding birds that belongs to the EU bird sanctuary Landgraben-Dumme-Niederung.

history

A watermill called Brietzermühle was first mentioned in an index of places in 1818. In 1873, the water mill was still fed by a small ditch, the Brietz water, which flowed north into the Salzwedel city forest.
