St. Martin's Church, Nendorf

Highlight • Religious Site

The St. Martin's Church, a former monastery church, has stood in the center of Nendorf for over 800 years. In addition to the church remains of the Benedictine nunnery can be seen. Their appearance shows traces of a turbulent construction and conversion history. 1525 ended the monastery life. In 1787 the church was rebuilt in neoclassical style and the present tower was added.

The Schlüsselburg barrage at water kilometer 236.6 is a dam with an associated hydroelectric power plant. It was built in the 1950s. The weir was built in 1956 and consists of two fields, each 40 meters wide. At the same time, a run-of-river power plant was built and has been in operation since 1956.

The hydroelectric power plant was originally operated by the PreußenElektra company, which was later absorbed into the EON Group. Through an exchange of shares with the Norwegian energy company Statkraft, the latter has been the owner and operator of the power plant since January 1, 2009.

Heimsen Windmill

Highlight • Monument

Wall-Holländer from 1873 (original blueprint is still preserved) with two sail and two blind wings. The windmill was built in 1873 as a successor to a ship mill and a post mill. The mill tower was built of masonry and plastered bricks on a quarry stone base. After 1921, an electric motor was added as an additional drive. There are three grinders and a trieur (cleaning machine). The grist gear is motor-driven, and a grinding gear with bag box is still functional by wind or motor drive.
