The watermill in Bruchmühlen is the oldest working mill in the district of Diepholz.

It belonged to the Heiligenberg monastery, founded in 1216, and was first mentioned in a document in 1370.

Grinding demonstrations are offered twice a month and on request. The mill has a multimedia room for conferences and two guest rooms. It is located in the Heiligenberg nature reserve and is part of the Mühlendreieck Diepholz, a collaboration of three historic mills that maintain and teach the traditional miller's craft, which is recognized by UNESCO as living cultural heritage. It serves as a training mill for volunteer millers. There is an observatory in the mill.
