THE MILL & ITS STORY

A historic water mill, lovingly transformed

From a 14th-century mill on the Rodebach creek to a warm and welcoming hotel and restaurant – Brommler Mühle combines history, nature and modern comfort.

Brommler Mühle is also known as Steger's Mill in the neighboring Netherlands and was first mentioned as a water mill in the early 14th century.

The first mention of the Brommler Mill dates back to 1317/1327. In 1492, it was also called "Moolen to bromelen." In the electoral register of 1566, it was listed as "Hanxler's Mill."

The Brommler Mill had been an oil and flour mill since ancient times. The last oil miller was Franz Hubert Piepers, who died at the mill in 1961.

For many years, the Brommler Mill housed a restaurant and was a popular recreation area for local visitors.

After centuries of milling and careful restoration, it reopened in 2010 as a place where guests can stay, dine and celebrate under historic beams and by the water.

Today, the mill houses a cozy restaurant and bistro, a large terrace with more than 80 seats, comfortable hotel rooms and a professional catering service. Many guests come back again and again – for a relaxed dinner, a weekend in nature or their most important family events.
