The mill in its full glory is visible from the Brücke vom Herdentor (Herdentor bridge) already. It is especially beautiful in the summer when flowers bloom and the sun is shining bright. A place to enjoy and feel great.A windmill was located on the “Gießhausbastion” since approx. 1815, but it burned down in 1832. The mill builder Berend Erling built a new windmill in 1833 in the same place.The mill has been the property of the Hanseatic City of Bremen since 1889. It had to be rebuilt in 1898 and 1950 again, because it was severely damaged by fire and war circumstances. The mill was used as a grain mill up to 1947. Based on provisions of the State Office for Preservation of Monuments, the mill was fully renovated in 1998; the blades and the gallery were renovated as well. The two lower levels were rebuilt as a gastronomy area.The embankments where the mill is located originated from the expansion of the fortifications built up to the 17th century. It is now a popular park facility and also Bremen’s oldest park facility. The parks surround all of old town and range from the Weser-River on the “Osterdeich” in the East to Dovenstorwall in the Stephani-Viertel (district) and after a short interruption, continue to the Focke-Museum. A small lake, the remaining city trench which was used as the former wood harbour still exists in the new part of town.The “Herdentorswallmühle” is a typical Dutch windmill with a five story, octagon base construction made of clinker bricks. The four blades measure 24 metres in diameter and are equipped with brake valves to control the number of rotations.For special occasions, such as the Windmill Day, the mill can be toured upon making an appointment and the mill also runs a minimum of three times per week.In addition to enjoying a meal there, one may also book facilities for birthday/wedding celebrations under the starry shy or to celebrate the Kohl & Pinkel (kale and sausages).The mills appearance is not only enjoyed by the tourists, the natives of Bremen also appreciate it, because such a lovely green space amidst of a large city is not available everywhere
