On a hill stands the windmill of the Raken Tower, visible from afar. It is one of the most beautiful and oldest of its kind in Westphalia. On a thick stump of quarry stones rests the hat with powerful wings, which have a wingspan of 22 meters. They could be turned in the right direction of the wind with the help of the "Krühstertes" (rotating tail). After a complete renovation, the local history association Reken installed a museum in the mill in 1972.
