Blick in die Historische Ölmühle des Riedmuseums auf den Mühlstein
This event is available in
German
On the occasion of German Mill Day on Whit Monday, May 25, the Riedmuseum with its historic oil mill can be visited free of charge from 2 to 6 pm.
At 2, 3 and 4 pm, there will also be the opportunity to take a short tour of the well-preserved oil mill, parts of which date back to the 18th century. In 1863, the mill, which was driven by a gin, was moved to its current location. It served as an important sideline for the residents of the house at Am Kirchplatz 6. In 1994, the oil mill was opened to the public. Even though it is theoretically still in working order, it is no longer allowed to be operated for architectural reasons. However, the guided tour provides an entertaining insight into the individual grinding processes.

Between tours, children (aged 5 and over) and families can make small "windmills" out of colorful paper.

Participation in the guided tours and the craft activity is free of charge on German Mill Day. Registration is not required.
