German Mill Day - Raußmühle Eppingen

The Raußmühle mill in Eppingen can be visited on Whit Monday from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. German Mill Day takes place annually on Whit Monday, which falls on June 9 in 2025. The aim of this day is to raise awareness of the importance of the forgotten craft of milling. On German Mill Day, the second open house of 2026 will take place at the Raußmühle. The Raußmühle will be open to visitors from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m., with short tours of the mill area, including the mill wheel, and light refreshments. There will be a large book flea market with works from the Dähling library and small and possibly larger rarities from the Dähling collection. All proceeds will go towards the preservation of the historic Raußmühle. **Raußmühle** The classic mill farmstead with its various residential and farm buildings is a living work of art that reconstructs and brings to life the complex relationships between humans, animals, plants, and the landscape. It was first mentioned in 1334. The collections in the archive on the history of rural life are known far beyond the region and range from mousetraps from the Middle Ages to the present day, to malt sacks and board chairs, to locks and keys. A relocated smoke kitchen from the Uhland family's property conveys a lasting impression of simple medieval life.
