Hellenurme Mill Museum

Hellenurme Mill Museum is a historic watermill in Hellenurme village, Elva parish, where visits focus on the technology of a working mill and traditional flour milling. The mill building, founded by the Middendorff family, has preserved machinery and fittings from the 1930s, and the tour follows the grain’s journey from cleaning to flour. For group visits the mill is set running by water power, and the programme includes an explanation by the miller’s family and a tasting of mill bread. It is not a freely open permanent exhibition: an ordinary visit must be arranged with the organiser in advance.
