It was an old mill. If I remember correctly, it must have been Dietrich's Mill.

During an extensive renovation of the Dahrendorf Feldsteinkirche carried out in 1940/41, not only were frescoes uncovered, but parchment was also discovered at the same time. The church building was dated 1112. Unfortunately, this document was lost in the post-war chaos. The architectural style of this one-piece fortified church also points to the first half of the 12th century. Over the centuries, the church has undergone many changes. It is no longer possible to clarify exactly whether this was due to the effects of war. The two gable walls, the upper half of which are made of bricks, indicate this. The wooden bell tower that stands directly on the west gable today was only built in 1852. It was only given its new cladding and roof in 1992. The nave was also re-roofed in the same year.

(Probably) remains of another mill on the Dumme. Very quiet and idyllic, birdsong and brook splashing.
