Back in the old days the large mills were landmarks in the Danish landscape. Most of them have vanished now, but Egeskov Mill is still standing were it was constructed in 1848-1855. There have been mills in the nearby area in over 500 years, but the illustrator Ib Andersen made the existing mill famous by using it as the motive of an old 10-kroner banknote in 1952. The mill is owned by Ryslinge municipal council, which in corporation with “Svendborg og Omegns Museum” has put together an exhibition of the history of the mill and the local area.

DYBBØL MILL INFO
The mill has stood as a symbol of danishness and loyalty since it was founded in 1744. This was due to its position in an important military strategic area. Because of this, the mill was shoot to pieces in 1849 and in 1864. The mill was reconstructed twice and continued to grind the Danish grain up until 1990. Today the mill is a part of “Sønderborg Museum”, and the old machinery and grinders are still intact, accompanied by an exhibition of the mills history.
