Oil Mill

The OIL MILL of Haslach is a traditional mill, where valuable linseed oil is pressed from linseed, and where other high quality edible oils are produced.

Other high-quality edible oils are also pressed. An exhibition of historical equipment is attached to the production facility in the picturesque ambience of the old mill, which can be viewed as part of a guided tour. Flaxseed oil has been known in the region since the High Middle Ages for its full taste, beneficial effects and even healing properties. Today we know that the positive effects of this type of oil are based on its high content of vitamins and unsaturated fatty acids. Culinary delicacies with linseed oil, such as the Mühlviertel linseed oil potatoes, linseed oil spreads, potato noodles and much more are very popular. The location is listed as one of three mills in the "Haslacher Urbar von 1379". The conditions for oil extraction are ideal in the Upper Mühlviertel: centuries of experience, soft water, the finest seeds. In the meantime forgotten, the Koblmiller family, who have owned the mill for over 200 years, have helped the regional product to achieve a renaissance. For example, old oil extraction equipment was brought together in an authentic museum mill and put back into operation. The place where appetizingly fragrant oil drips fresh from the press is an experience for all the senses.
