Tips from the millarin:

# Just before the mill, the Obere Eiter and the Rutentalbeke converge. They form unique brook valleys, so you can enjoy walking.

# Have you ever eaten water pepper (Persicaria hydropiper)? Taste it in our meadows. There it is growing in abundance. Water? Yes, 'Bruch' is in Dutch 'pants' which means swampy land.

# De Bruchmuhlen rents out E-bikes that are charged with green electricity from the mill.

# An absolute must is a train ride in Germany's oldest railway museum.

# Bruchhausen-Vilsen is a recognized Luftkurort with a beautiful spa park and swimming pool. Because of the clear sky, beautiful starry skies can be seen at the mill and you can sometimes feel the tingling of the air.

.# Bruchhausen-Vilsen has a wide choice of dining options with the star restaurant 'Fursthaus Heiligenberg' less than 700 meters away from the mill.

# Bruchhausen-Vilsen has many city and nature guides. Nice to take a walk with it. They tell beautiful stories.

# The early medieval church tower in the sweet village of Vilsen has a treasure: two mausoleums of millers of the Bruchmuhlen.

# The Bruchmuhlen together with the mills of Labbus and Neubruchhausen form Der Muhlendreieck. Three mills, a wind, a water and a historic motor mill that are still grinding and where guests are very welcome. The total (bicycle) route along the three mills is 58 km. The mills have applied to be included on the UNESCO list of intangible heritage.

# At 18 km from the Bruchmuhlen is Syke with its Kreismuseum, an open-air museum with a beautiful grain shed and halle farm. On the way to Syke, pass the watermill complex of Wachendorf where the famous Dutchman Rudi Carell lived who wrote the song 'A mouse in a windmill'.

# At 21 km distance is Verden with beautiful old churches, beautiful half-timbered houses, the horse museum and a historical museum.
