A legacy of Dutch settlers and one of the few preserved Dutch windmills in Pomerania and Masuria, this round brick structure, built in 1892, is a registered historical monument. Perched on a hill at the edge of Ryn, it offers panoramic views of the lake-dotted landscape from its top floor. The Ryńskie Lake, Ołów Lake, Ryn Castle, and local points of interest are only about 400 meters away.



Some years ago, the windmill underwent extensive restoration and now serves as a unique residence. Its four floors have been adapted for holiday rentals and tourism services. During renovations, the building’s outer wall was secured, interior ceilings were reinforced, and comfortable living spaces with bathrooms were added.



Floor layout:

  • Ground floor: Open-plan kitchen, dining area, and living room with a double-sided fireplace, plus a WC.
  • First and second floors: Two bedrooms and a bathroom.
  • Top floor (dome): A bedroom with an en-suite bathroom featuring views of the picturesque surroundings and Ryńskie Lake.

Heating is provided by natural gas, with connections to the municipal water and sewage systems. Fully equipped with quality amenities, the building can be used year-round or as a holiday retreat accommodating up to 10 guests.

  • Building area: 180 m² across 4 floors
  • Plot size: 2,300 m², surrounded by hedges, trees, and a wall.


The property also includes an outbuilding connected to a large Masurian-style shelter, complete with a grill, kitchen, and smokehouse, featuring original Masurian tiles. This outdoor space offers an ideal setting for events, team-building gatherings, or cozy evenings. Event tents can be set up for larger occasions.



As the new owner, you could continue the tourist operations and organize events at this exceptional property, with the option to inherit established client contacts and reservations. This property also makes a distinctive and memorable location for an office or business.



Location

Ryn is a quaint town in Masuria, southwest of Giżycko, near the Great Masurian Lakes. Known for its long tourist season, the town boasts a rich history dating back to the Neolithic period (4500–1700 BC), with archaeological traces found throughout the area. Ryn sits between two lakes: Ryńskie Lake and Ołów Lake. Dominating the town center is Zamek Ryn, a renowned Teutonic castle built in 1377, now a celebrated hotel. Another unique landmark in Ryn is this Dutch windmill, along with a historic watermill.
