Mühlenmuseum in Hiesfeld, Germany

Postcard DE-3395051 from Germany shows the Mühlenmuseum, the Mill Museum,  in the small neighborhood of Hiesfeld, Dinslaken, Germany. The museum has a watermill and a windmill, serving to show the development of millers' crafts in history. It is one of the 200 museums in the Ruhr District, the largest metropolitan area in Germany.

Surrounded by the beautiful nature, the wind mill was originally built in 1822 at the center of what is now the district of Hiesfeld. The water mill was built close by the Rotbach river in 1693. Both mills have since been restored. The museum also has a collection of over 60 model mills from around the world. The admission is free.

The Red Line is the busiest route in the city, running through Chicago from north to south and under a subway tunnel downtown.
