Watches Mill

Distance: 23.26 Km

The now listed Uhre Mølle was built in 1843 and is unique of its kind in Denmark. The mill is of the earth Dutchman type. It is covered both on the hat and the octagonal hull - right down to ground level. Uhre Mølle has almost all the woodwork and equipment inside intact, and is therefore an exciting attraction for those interested in history. 

The mill started in 1843 and it was in operation for approximately 107 years. Today, the mill is protected, and you must take good care of it. Uhre Mølle, or Branduhre Mølle, stands on a hill just outside the village of Uhre, approx. 3 kilometers east of Brande. The nearby farm is the old mill farm, and the mill house has the modernized warehouse building, which is used for meetings, parties and exhibitions.

Uhre Mølle ran until around 1950, when electricity made its way into the agricultural holdings - and the storm tore the mill blades off. The mill has a board exhibition about the mill's history in an adjacent building, where you can bring your own coffee or the like indoors at tables and chairs.

The mill has been thoroughly restored and is functional. Furthermore, the full inventory has been preserved.
