history
The mill was built in 1850 by the Rodenbeck family. From the beginning of the 20th century, the Tultewitzer Mühle served as a grocery store and bakery under the leadership of the Haak family. The company passed this on to the Ecke family, who operated it until 1928. The Winkler family continued to operate the mill and bakery from 1928 until its closure in 1952.
During the lifetime of the last miller and baker, Willi Winkler, the Röder family acquired the ruins in 1991. The planning for the reconstruction began shortly after the purchase. In 1994, the building application submitted in 1992 was approved and the mill was gradually reconstructed and restored until 1998, entirely from private funds and with the help of family members. In 1998 the construction work was completed. In 1999, the mill technology in Warendorf , Schlüchtern , Bensheim , Jessen and Eckartsberga was completed and stored between September 28 and October 3, 2000 until it was installed.
