Oberneulander mill
The Oberneulander Mühle is a windmill in the Bremen district of Oberneuland . Since 1973 it has been listed as an individual monument in the state monument list of the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen .
history
First there was a post mill , which was probably built in the early 17th century and was first mentioned in a document in 1768. In 1840 this mill burned down.
A new Dutch mill was built in 1848 by Brünn Ehlers. From 1920 the mill was operated by the Behrens & Schröder company. The mill has been a listed building since 1953. In 1964 it was donated to the city of Bremen and then restored. In 1972 the Focke Museum set up a mill department here.
The Oberneulander mill is station 43 on the Lower Saxony mill road and the landmark of the Oberneuland district. The repaired mill has been open to the public as a branch of the Bremen State Museum for Art and Cultural History since 1972 . In addition to the mill technology, the permanent exhibition From Grain to Bread can be visited.
