🔴 The Red Mill (Schoof’s Mill) The eastern of the two sisters is the Red Mill. It is not just a monument, but a living business. You can visit the mill and climb steep stairs up to the gallery on the second floor to enjoy the fantastic panoramic view over the village and the marsh landscape. 🔭🌾

🚲✨ The Greetsiel twin mills are the unmistakable landmark of the idyllic fishing village of Greetsiel and an absolute must for every visitor to East Frisia. The two gallery windmills stand majestically at the entrance to the village, directly on the Sieltief, and tell a turbulent history of tradition, craftsmanship, and the fight against the forces of nature.
