History and architecture
The watermill on the Dutch border was first mentioned in a document in 1331. There is evidence that it was in possession of the bishop in 1350. The building on the Alstätter Aa was built in 1619. A renovation by Peter Pictorius d. J. is attested by an inscription on the coat of arms of Prince-Bishop Clemens August.
The half-timbered building with brick infill stands on a solid stone base . The anchor beam construction was made with curved lugs .
