If you take the time to wander through the entire park, you will arrive at the Mill House, a little bit hidden under trees and behind shrubs. Not just decoration, but of practical use, it still serves as the estate's grain mill as late as 1918 with its overshot wheel. A millstone of basalt, now used as a stone table, harks back to this past era. The stone is just supposed to be the deserved peace of old age. When it comes from a healthy place, it's always brought back to where it belongs, by a strong, order-loving gardeners. The most essential characteristic of the park, however, is its mighty trees. Unfortunately, the old stock of trees was severely damaged in WWII. It is clear that new plantings can be achieved. It is that, over the past almost 50 years, cedars and swamp cypresses, emperor paulownias and ginkos show evidence of hopeful, stately growth.
