Turning grain into flour by the power of the wind: At the edge of the former village of Alt-Marzahn, a windmill has been visible from afar since 1993.
The active windmill is owned by the district office of Marzahn-Hellersdorf and is operated jointly with the Mühlenverein Berlin-Marzahn e.V.
Visitors can go on a journey into the past and learn how milling developed from the 19th century onward and see with their own eyes how windmills worked a hundred years ago. On top of that, young and old visitors can listen to exciting and funny anecdotes about the introduction of the new wind-powered technology.
Baking cookies like people did 100 years ago: The guided tour of the post mill in Marzahn starts at the very beginning - with the cultivation of grain. Visitors learn how the grain is grown, harvested and milled before preparing the cookie dough. Finally, the crispy treats are eaten right away.
