The five-storey windmill from 1863 is a gallery windmill on the masonry of a previous mill. In 1924 it was rebuilt by the Amme, Giesecke & Konegen mill construction company.[2] It was powered by wind until 1953 and then by electric motor until 1960. After that the mill fell into disrepair and the town of Goldberg bought it and gutted it to set up a restaurant. The building continued to deteriorate considerably.

The building is a historical monument.
The city of Goldberg with 3392 inhabitants (2020) was first mentioned as Gols in 1227 and received city rights (civis) in 1248.
In 1450, Duke Gerhard pledged “Hof und Mühle” to the knight Ulrich von Metzingen. In 1715 a new water wheel was built for the mill. In 1904 the farm burned down, the watermill was preserved.
