This collection features well-preserved post mills and tower mills across Saxony-Anhalt, showcasing regional engineering from the 18th and 19th centuries. The selection includes heritage-protected structures like the Anderbeck post mill and the Pieschelscher Mühlturm in Genthin, a former oil mill tower built in 1824. These sites illustrate the transition from traditional timber-framed windmills to stone tower mills used for grinding grain and oil production.
