Weseke is a town in the western Münsterland and Borken district.
The post mill in Weseke was first built in Krippehna near Eilenburg in Saxony in 1848. This year the mill was built by miller Gottlob Freygang as a branch mill.
The post mill is the earliest type of European windmill. Its defining feature is that the whole body of the mill that houses the machinery is mounted on a single central vertical post. The vertical post is supported by four quarter bars. These are struts that steady the central post.
Since the complete mill was constructed of wood, it could be dismantled and rebuilt in another place. This was particularly important in wartime, but also because of the ever-increasing space requirements of cities due to population growth.
Many windmills, which had previously stood at a good wind field, became windless as the development nearby increased and took the wind away from the mills.
As a result, many mills were dismantled and rebuilt in more windy places, so the Wesek mill came via detours to the Münsterland.

The watermill Lippholthausen (Schloßmühle Lippholthausen) in the Lippholthausen district of Lünen is a grain mill built in 1760 near the Lippe river. The watermill of the former Buddenburg noble house is a late Baroque half-timbered building, not far from the former Buddenburg Castle.
From the 14th century until 1902, the Buddenburg house was owned by the Frydag family of Buddenburg. The Frydags belong to the very old Westphalian nobles. The family is mentioned for the first time in 1198.
Around 1535, the noble family built a watermill south of Brunnenstraße and opposite Schlossallee. At the former river Henebecke a large millpond was excavated.
Afterwards, the runs of the creek Henebecke, Sadbecke, Wilbecke and Seltenbecke were diverted so that they flowed directly into the new millpond and fed it with water.
After the mill had been completed and put into operation, the farmers in the area of the thirlage "Buddenburg Mahlzwang" had to come to the castle mill to have their grain ground.
Nothing remains of the mill built at the beginning of the 16th century. However, the current mill building already has a considerable number of years on the hump: It was built in 1760 by Wessel Giesbert von Frydag.
In 1903, Haus Buddenburg and the mill were inherited by the Rüxleben family. The latter finally sold the property to the city of Lünen in 1913. Until 1930 grain was ground in the castle mill.
The old mill pond above the castle mill is no longer present, it was filled in 1938 during the construction of the Lippewerk. A loss for trippers, they could sail around on the pond with paddle boats.
Until the end of the 1970s, the House of Buddenburg, which also included the castle mill, stood in the district of Lippholthausen, now part of Lünen.
The Mühlenfreunde Lippholthausen e. V. restored and maintains the mill, which currently serves as an excursion restaurant and can also be used for weddings. It was placed under monument protection in 1985.

The Heinkel He 111 was a German airliner and bomber designed by Siegfried and Walter Günter at Heinkel Flugzeugwerke in 1934. Through development, it was described as a "wolf in sheep's clothing". Due to restrictions placed on Germany after the First World War prohibiting bombers, it was presented solely as a civil airliner, although from conception the design was intended to provide the nascent Luftwaffe with a heavy bomber.
Perhaps the best-recognised German bomber of World War II due to the distinctive, extensively glazed "greenhouse" nose of the later versions, the Heinkel He 111 was the most numerous Luftwaffe bomber during the early stages of the war. It fared well until it met serious fighter opposition during the Battle of Britain, when its defensive armament was found to be inadequate. As the war progressed, the He 111 was used in a wide variety of roles on every front in the European theatre. It was used as a strategic bomber during the Battle of Britain, a torpedo bomber in the Atlantic and Arctic, and a medium bomber and a transport aircraft on the Western, Eastern, Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and North African Front theatres.
The He 111 was constantly upgraded and modified, but had still become obsolete by the latter part of the war. The failure of the German Bomber B project forced the Luftwaffe to continue operating the He 111 in combat roles until the end of the war. Manufacture of the He 111 ceased in September 1944, at which point piston-engine bomber production was largely halted in favour of fighter aircraft. With the German bomber force virtually defunct, the He 111 was used for logistics.
Production of the Heinkel continued after the war as the Spanish-built CASA 2.111. Spain received a batch of He 111H-16s in 1943 along with an agreement to licence-build Spanish versions. Its airframe was produced in Spain under licence by Construcciones Aeronáuticas SA. The design differed significantly only in the powerplant used, eventually being equipped with Rolls-Royce Merlin engines. These remained in service until 1973.

Hattingen is a German town located in northern part of the Ennepe-Ruhr-Kreis district, in North Rhine-Westphalia.
Hattingen is located on the south bank of the River Ruhr in the south of the Ruhr region. The town was first mentioned in 1396, when the Duke of Mark granted permission to build a city wall. Today, Hattingen has a picturesque historic district with Fachwerk (timber-framed houses) built between the 14th and 16th centuries. The old city is still partly surrounded by the city walls today.
There are three castles remaining within the municipal area of Hattingen. Castle Isenburg was built in the 12th century in the hillsides above the Ruhr. The castle was destroyed in 1225, but prominent ruins remain. Blankenstein Castle was built in the 13th century above the Ruhr river and Haus Kemnade is a moated castle from the 16th century. All three castles are famous tourist landmarks and open to the public.
Hattingen became part of the Hanseatic League in 1554 and became an important trading town. In 1720, there were 52 operating coal mines within the municipal area and Hattingen became one of the first industrial cities of the Ruhr region. Steel production started in 1853, when the Henrichshütte was founded. The Henrichshütte became one of the most important employers of the whole region and dominated the town until it closed in 1987.
Today, Hattingen still faces problems concerning structural change of the economy, but is becoming a centre of tourism, especially its historical downtown.
The Luisenhütte Wocklum (also Wocklumer Hammer) in the Balver district of Wocklum is Germany's oldest blast furnace plant with complete facilities.
Perhaps the history of the Luisenhütte dates back to 1732. However, the construction of an iron hut by the Landsberg family can only be documented in 1748.In 1758 the Luisenhütte was taken over by Clemens August von Landsberg.
Ignaz von Landsberg-Velen und Gemen, who took over the holdings in 1812, devoted himself particularly to the expansion of this foundry complex. In his time also falls the 1835 naming: Ludowika (Luise) von Westerholt-Gysenberg was his wife.
In 1854, due to growing competition from the neighbouring Ruhr region, England and Belgium, the hut was expanded and rebuilt.
Castle Hugenpoet (speak: "Hugenpoot") is a three-part moated castle surrounded by canals in Essen Kettwig, in immediate neighborhood to the castle Landsberg.
His name can be interpreted as "a toad pool" what gives an instruction to the marshy meadow sceneries there in the Ruhr valley.

The Fokker D.VII was a German World War I fighter aircraft designed by Reinhold Platz of the Fokker-Flugzeugwerke. Germany produced around 3,300 D.VII aircraft in the second half of 1918. In service with the Luftstreitkräfte, the D.VII quickly proved itself to be a formidable aircraft. The Armistice ending the war specifically required, as the fourth clause of the "Clauses Relating to the Western Front", that Germany was required to surrender all D.VIIs to the Allies. Surviving aircraft saw much service with many countries in the years after World War I.
The aircraft on display was still in flight with the Dutch Navy (MLD) in 1935. Compared to the aircraft used in World War I, it has some modifications. Among other things, the upper fuselage cladding in front of the cockpit was changed and the typical armament of a fighter aircraft, which consists of two machine guns above the engine, was missing. The exhibit is painted in the typical camouflage pattern of the German aircraft of the First World War and has a fictional license plate. It was found in Bavaria in 1948 and has since been owned by the Deutsches Museum. The individual history of the exhibit between 1935 and 1948 is unknown.

From 1927 to 1939 about 600 were built. It was thus the most successful and widespread German sports aircraft and was also stationed at Schleißheim airfield in the early 1930s. Characteristic is the design of the "light aircraft" as a cantilever low-decker with a low surface load and a relatively weak engine. This resulted in a favorable purchase price and low operating costs.
The Klemm L 25 was built in five versions (a-e). Motors of various manufacturers from 30 to 70 kW served as the drive. The aircraft on display is equipped with the BMW X engine, which was produced only in a small number (about 30). It is approved and airworthy.
The castle Oberhausen is a classicistic castle arrangement in the Oberhausener part of town Oberhausen. The property gave in 1846 nearby built and in 1847 open railway station and with it of the later city of Oberhausen the name.
After heavy damages during the Second World War the mansion was anew established in the end of the 1950s after old original plans.
Today it accommodates gallery an internationally famous art Museum Ludwig; the castle park with his leisure offers is a popular destination of the Oberhausener population.

SR-71A #61-7972 is on display at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, VA. From 1991 until September 2003, #972 was in storage at Washington Dulles International Airport in a building specifically constructed for this aircraft. There, it was under strict surveillance by National Air and Space Museum representatives, who regularly adjusted humidity levels to ensure the best possible preservation conditions. This aircraft is no doubt the best-looking of the remaining SR-71s, along with SR-71A #976.
This aircraft holds many records that were set on 6 March 1990, when it was flown from Palmdale to Dulles in what was intended to be the last USAF flight of the SR-71. It also holds the New York to London record of 1 hour, 54 minutes, 56.4 seconds set in 1974. You may have noted the Skunk Works insignia on the rudders of #972. After SR-71A #955's last flight on 24 January 1985, #972 became the Palmdale test aircraft. This aircraft's assembly started 13 December 1965 and was rolled out on 15 September 1966.

The Evoluon is a conference centre and former science museum erected by the electronics and electrical company Philips at Eindhoven in the Netherlands in 1966. Since its construction, it has become a landmark and a symbol for the city. The building is unique due to its very futuristic design, resembling a landed flying saucer. It was designed by architects Leo de Bever and Louis Christiaan Kalff ||||| Het Evoluon is een discusvormig gebouw in de Nederlandse stad Eindhoven, ontworpen door de architecten Louis Kalff en Leo de Bever. De futuristische op een vliegende schotel gelijkende koepel meet 77 m in diameter en het beton van de koepel wordt door 169 kilometer spankabel op zijn plaats gehouden. Het gebouw wordt gebruikt voor tentoonstellingen en als congres- en evenementencentrum..Het Evoluon was bedoeld als uithangbord voor de technologische vooruitgang en dan met name die aspecten daarvan waarbij het van oorsprong Eindhovense bedrijf Philips betrokken was. Het gebouw werd in 1966 ter gelegenheid van het 75-jarig bestaan van Philips aan de stad Eindhoven 'aangeboden' (wikipedia)

The photo shows the Hüvener mill, this is to be found one of the last completely preserved combined windmill and water mill of Europe, in the administrative district Emsland in western Lower Saxony of Germany.
The mill is illustrated on the coat of arms of the "Mill Union Lower Saxony and Bremen" and one of the tourist attractions in the surroundings of the hilly Geestlandschaft and the Hümmling.
In 1802 the water mill was built, in 1850 a windmill was built up on the water mill. The combination of two mills was up to now unique in Lower Saxony at this time.
The Württemberg Hz were 0-10-0 rack and adhesion steam locomotives, that were initially developed by the Royal Württemberg State Railways (Königlich Württembergische Staats-Eisenbahnen), but were delivered to the Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft (DRG) in the mid-1920s.
The locomotives had a Winterthur cogwheel drive with one lower and one upper pair of cylinders. On the level, they ran like normal steam locomotives using the lower, higher pressure, pair of cylinders driving on the third coupled axle. Before entering the rack section the upper drive was started using live steam. At the same time the r.p.m. was matched to the running speed so that entry into the rack section could be achieved smoothly. Once the cogwheel had engaged the rack, the exhaust from the lower cylinders was routed to the upper, lower pressure, ones using a change valve and was expelled from the chimney. The locomotive now worked as a compound.
The cylinders of the adhesion and cogwheel drives have the same diameters (Ø 560 mm). The difference in volume (after expulsion from the adhesion system, the steam doubles its volume) is compensated for because the cogwheel drive turns twice as fast. The driving cogwheel is housed in a special frame, that lies above the second and third axle. The higher cogwheel drive and the lower cogwheel are coupled via an intermediate gear with a transmission ratio of 1:2.43.
The boilers were given steel fireboxes and the frame was reinforced, especially in the area of the drive. The outermost axles, which had side play, were given return springs to minimise hunting.
Of the four machines built, three have been preserved:
97501 in Reutlingen
97502 at the Bochum-Dahlhausen Railway Museum in Bochum-Dahlhausen
97504 at the Deutsches Technikmuseum Berlin

The "Old Water Mill," formerly called "Wedersmol," as the court mill of the Maierhof is named in 1359 in a fief register of the bishop's court of the Osnabrück cathedral chapter.
This fief register listed regular compulsory levies on grain meal.
The mill building as it still stands today is said to have been rebuilt around 1780. There is still a correspondence from this time about disputes between the "Meyer zu Essen" and the peasantry Essen around the mill pond.
After the abolition of the mill constraint in 1831, the Hofwassermühle was probably also freely leased.
Until 1880 it was managed by a miller named Bosse. Then lay still for a long time until miller Pieper took over. The miller Pieper also built a steam engine, above the mill at the mill pond, to drive the probably two grinding courses in case of lack of water.
The city of Essen became Bad-Essen in 1902, and got a station of the Wittlager district railway. The miller Pieper promised an economic upturn and built a new mill with roller grinding chairs and machine drive near the station.
miller Pieper gave up the mills in Bad-Essen in 1905 and emigrated to the Poznan area.
This was the opportunity for the miller Hinrich Melcher to take over the mill.
His son Wilhelm then took over milling and operated the "Old Water Mill" until 1935 for feed meal.
The mill was donated in 1948 by the last Meyerhof heir to the municipality of Bad-Essen.

The watermill Lippholthausen (Schloßmühle Lippholthausen) in the Lippholthausen district of Lünen is a grain mill built in 1760 near the Lippe river. The watermill of the former Buddenburg noble house is a late Baroque half-timbered building, not far from the former Buddenburg Castle.
From the 14th century until 1902, the Buddenburg house was owned by the Frydag family of Buddenburg. The Frydags belong to the very old Westphalian nobles. The family is mentioned for the first time in 1198.
Around 1535, the noble family built a watermill south of Brunnenstraße and opposite Schlossallee. At the former river Henebecke a large millpond was excavated.
Afterwards, the runs of the creek Henebecke, Sadbecke, Wilbecke and Seltenbecke were diverted so that they flowed directly into the new millpond and fed it with water.
After the mill had been completed and put into operation, the farmers in the area of the thirlage "Buddenburg Mahlzwang" had to come to the castle mill to have their grain ground.
Nothing remains of the mill built at the beginning of the 16th century. However, the current mill building already has a considerable number of years on the hump: It was built in 1760 by Wessel Giesbert von Frydag.
In 1903, Haus Buddenburg and the mill were inherited by the Rüxleben family. The latter finally sold the property to the city of Lünen in 1913. Until 1930 grain was ground in the castle mill.
The old mill pond above the castle mill is no longer present, it was filled in 1938 during the construction of the Lippewerk. A loss for trippers, they could sail around on the pond with paddle boats.
Until the end of the 1970s, the House of Buddenburg, which also included the castle mill, stood in the district of Lippholthausen, now part of Lünen.
The Mühlenfreunde Lippholthausen e. V. restored and maintains the mill, which currently serves as an excursion restaurant and can also be used for weddings. It was placed under monument protection in 1985.

The Wuppertal Swimming Opera is an urban bathing establishment in Wuppertal. It was built until 1957 and entered in 1995 on the city's heritage list.
The Wuppertal swimming opera was built according to plans by Friedrich Hetzelt of the company Dyckerhoff & Widmann from 1955 to 1957. The building was managed by master builder Johannes Krieger from Remscheid. 22,000 m ³ soil were moved to their construction, 5,100 m ³ reinforced concrete, 30,600 pieces of cement, 510 t reinforcing steel, 51 t special prestressing steel and 6,200 m ³ gravel were installed.
Until 2019, the swimming opera was officially called the City Bath. Her popular name was given to her because of discussions after the war whether to rebuild the destroyed opera house in Barmen or to build a new opera house for Wuppertal on Johannisberg - the current location of the swimming opera (the decision was then made for the swimming pool). The spectator stands, which are visible from the outside and emphasize the function of the city pool as a competition hall, are also said to have inspired the name. Standing opposite the historical backdrop of the Stadthalle Elberfeld, the swimming opera is an essential part of Wuppertal's architectural history. Its striking exterior, curved lines and many glass surfaces make the construction appear very transparent and light despite its obvious size. In August 2019, the nickname finally became official.
On 21 September 1995, the building was recognized as a monument and entered in the monument list of the city of Wuppertal.
