The mill was first documented in 1530 and originally belonged to the Lindow convent (later the Lindow ladies' convent and office). It is one of the last remaining water and windmills in the region. In the Middle Ages, it served the monastery, which was one of the richest in the March of Brandenburg. Fires destroyed parts of the complex in 1805 and 1846; it was rebuilt afterwards. The current two-story main building dates from 1848 (or reconstruction after 1846) and is an example of Prussian rural architecture.

Originally it was a classic water mill. Today it is decommissioned as a grain mill, but still possesses complete milling technology (formerly with a turbine). Since about 1928/1936 it has been operated electrically. The preserved water wheel (an undershot Straub wheel) still turns occasionally for demonstration purposes or lies in the flow.

I tried to drive around the lake away from paved roads, but unfortunately kept ending up in dead ends. Therefore, the best way to drive around the lake is on the existing road!

The city's first fortifications were built during the 13th century using palisades and a rampart and ditch system, which were later replaced by walls and ramparts. Twenty-four watchtowers and two tall towers further reinforced the city walls. Three gates were added: the Altruppin/Rheinsberg Gate in the north, the Berlin/Bechlin Gate in the south, and the Sea Gate in the east. The city was completely encircled by walls towards the end of the 15th century. The city wall is still almost entirely intact today. https://www.goruma.de/staedte/neuruppin/neuruppin-sehenswuerdigkeiten

On the church square, directly behind the parish church of St. Mary, stands the monument to the architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel. It honors the city's famous son, who was born in Neuruppin on March 3, 1781. The childhood home of the future royal architect and city planner once stood on this site. The devastating city fire of 1787 destroyed the house, forcing his widow and her children to move into the Preacher's Widow's House. Schinkel's father was a superintendent and died of pneumonia shortly after the fire. The monument, erected in 1883, was created by the sculptor Max Wiese and depicts the architect holding a drawing of the Berlin Schauspielhaus. https://www.tourismus-neuruppin.de/kultur-erleben-neuruppin/sehenswertes-neuruppin/118-schinkel-denkmal-neuruppin

A magnificent, unusual sculpture. It's made of rusty metal, is a decent size, and offers many different perspectives. It's worth taking your time to admire it. Walking all the way around it will give you the best impressions. Naturally, the object serves as a symbol for the town of Herzberg (Mark).
