The Klippmühle was a water mill on Still Waters , a lane near the bank in Hasserode near Wernigerode on the northern edge of the Harz Mountains . The required mill water was diverted from the Holtemme . It came back into the same at the Kesselmühlenteich .

history

The water mill was built with the permission of King Friedrich II of Prussia in 1767/68 north below the Blockshornberg to supply the residents of the newly founded colonist settlement Friedrichsthal , now a district of Wernigerode, with flour.

The first mill tenant was a Christian. Heinrich Muller. In 1920, master miller Wilhelm Günther took over the mill, who also ran a bakery, which was closed in 1960. From then on, the mill was used for residential purposes and until 1990 for holiday apartments. After the demolition had already been approved in 1989, the mill and its outbuildings (address: Stillewasser 3) were demolished in December 2002 with the approval of the Lower Monument Protection Authority of the city of Wernigerode due to the risk of collapse. Today there is a single-family house on the site of the Klippmühle.
