Senta Windmill: history and visiting

It was built in 1871, lost its sails in 1931 and was restored to its complete form in 1980. A wine festival is held at the mill every year; check the specific dates before your trip. A brochure for visiting Senta is available to buy in Todenbüttel. If you are planning a visit, ask about opening times in advance.
Dreieinigkeitskirche: a neo-Gothic building with older reliefs
Dreieinigkeitskirche was consecrated on 5 October 1863 in the neo-Gothic style. It is a single-nave neo-Gothic brick building with a 40-metre-high west tower. The altar is adorned with four oak reliefs dating from 1597. They were created well before the church building was consecrated, adding an older historical element within the building. The church and organ are protected as historic monuments. “Single-nave” means that the church interior has just one nave.
The Au, meadows and woodland as part of the townscape
Todenbüttel is considered a green church village. Woodlands, meadows and the Au invite visitors to relax; the Todenbütteler Au flows through the town. Further north, the watercourse continues as the Haaler Au and reaches the Kiel Canal about six kilometres north of Todenbüttel. The Haaler Au area is designated as a Natura 2000 and FFH site and also includes a European bird sanctuary.
In the wider travel destination of Rendsburg-Eckernförde
The district of Rendsburg-Eckernförde has 55 kilometres of Baltic Sea coastline. It also has a signposted cycling network stretching 1,000 kilometres and four nature parks. The 180-kilometre Nature Park Hiking Trail runs through these four nature parks. These figures complement Todenbüttel’s local attractions with a distinct regional setting.
The Westensee-Obere Eider Nature Park is characterised by numerous lake complexes in the Schleswig-Holstein Uplands. It includes Westensee, a lake covering around seven square kilometres and a popular day-trip destination. In fine weather, the 98-metre-high Aschberg offers panoramic views as far as the Kiel Canal, Eckernförde Bay and the state capital, Kiel. The diverse landscapes therefore range from protected habitats and lakes to the coast and scenic viewpoints.
