The watermill in Groß Gievitz, also known as the Gievitz Mill, was built around 1890 as a gristmill and originally had a waterwheel. Around 1903, a steam engine was added to improve the machinery, and a bakery was integrated in 1910. Flour was sold as far away as Waren, which negatively impacted local mills. The mill ceased operation in 1963 because small, private mills were no longer receiving orders.
