Historic mustard mill

senf3The historic mustard mill takes our visitors back to the times when mustard was still produced untouched by preservatives and artificial ingredients. In order to experience this traditional pleasure, the mustard mill offers the program “Make your own mustard” for groups of 10 people or more. The adventure program is designed for young and old. Our guests can experience the secrets of mustard here with all their senses.
In earlier times, mustard was a pure remedy and only later became established as a delicacy in the food sector.


The historic mustard mill Birgel in the Eifel is a destination for children and families, but is also suitable for inclusion in company outings and company parties.

Both the brown and the yellow mustard seeds are ground in an old grinding mill and then mixed with water and vinegar in a mash tun to form a mustard paste. Sugar and salt as well as the secret spices of the mustard miller give our mustard its own gourmet taste.


Experience and taste a process and a product that is manufactured in a mustard mill that is almost 200 years old with proven quality.

The mustard mill was repaired in such a way that the production method of mustard can be shown again today in its full range.

Of course, you can also look over the shoulder of the mustard miller and watch the production process.

Senfmüller Erwin vd Mühle produces his mustards according to old and self-developed recipes.


Tradition can be so delicious, wonderfully full-bodied and prepared with love. For meat, fish, cheese and salad dressings and as a refined addition to fine dishes.
