The wind pumping station was used to drain the Thurbruch River from 1926 to 1968. Afterward, the drainage was replaced by electric pumps, and the structure was listed as a historical monument. In 1990, the pumping station was restored and remains fully functional today. A beautiful, quiet spot with a covered seating area where you can enjoy nature.
