Dybbøl Mølle, Sønderborg
Facts and practical information
Dybbøl Mølle west of Sønderborg on Dybbøl Banke was built in 1936. It is a tower mill, i.e. a Dutch windmill with a gallery, where the lower and upper mills have a plastered foundation wall. The cap is boat-shaped and covered with cardboard. The blades are fitted with flaps and the windmill curves with wind roses. The last tenant was Frede Grevsen Petersen, who ran the mill from 1982 to 1990.
In 1995 the museum at Sønderborg Castle set up exhibitions in the mill and the granary. The A.P. Møller and Chastine Mc-Kinney Møller Charitable Foundation gave DKK 5.5 million to restore the now dilapidated mill, and in 2009 the mill was plastered and whitewashed; and the wings and roundhouse repaired. In 2019-2020, the mill was renovated again, including new wings and a new ring gear.
