geography

The Dalheimer Mühle is located on Mühlenstraße in the Dalheim district in the Mittelstadt Wegberg in the Heinsberg district . The mill building is on the left side of the Rothenbach. In front of the mill is a mill pond, the water level of which is 55  m above sea level. NN and which is fed by the Helpensteiner Bach. Above the Dalheimer Mühle is the Rödgener Mühle, below the Gitstapper Mühle on Dutch territory.

Waters

The Rothenbach has its origin in the Helpensteiner Bach, which has its source near the Siemens test center on Friedrich-List-Allee. The source height is 84  m above sea level. NN . The Helpensteiner Bach flows through the Rödgener Burgweiher, also called Rakyweiher, on its way and supplied the Rödgener Mühle with water through an overshot mill wheel until 1899. The further course of the brook leads through a wooded area to Dalheimer Mühle, where the Helpensteiner Bach flows through the upstream mill pond and forms the border between the Netherlands and Germany behind the mill as Rothenbach over a stretch of 5.5 kilometers . On its way, the Gitstapper mill is supplied with water before the Rothenbach near Vlodrop flows into the Rur as "Rode Beek" in the Netherlands . The mouth height is 28  m above sea level. NN .

history

The history of the Dalheimer Mühle begins with a sales deed from 1231. In it, Heinrich Herr zu Helpenstein sells the mill, the pond and some of the land to the Cistercians in Ophoven . The mill forms the basis for the relocation of the monastery to Dalheim, which took place in 1258. The present mill building was rebuilt after a fire in 1775. The mill had a milling operation and oil press . With the abolition of the monastery in 1802 by the French government, the mill came into private hands. Around 1880 a restaurant was added to the mill building. In 1974 the mill was equipped with a new mill wheel. Milling was stopped in 1958. In 1998 the Dalheimer mill was almost completely destroyed by a fire. After eight years of construction, the Dalheimer Mühle was reopened in July 2008.
