The Kolliger mill (Template:Langx) is a watermill in Kollig,[1] in the German Eifel region, Script error: No such module "convert". west of Koblenz and Script error: No such module "convert". from the river Moselle.

The water wheel of the Kolliger Mühle is driven by the water of a small river, the Script error: No such module "Lang"., also called the Script error: No such module "Lang".. It is one of a great number of watermills in the Eifel region. Other watermills in the neighbourhood are the Script error: No such module "Lang". and the Script error: No such module "Lang"..

The oldest part of the mill probably dates from the 17th century. In the course of the centuries restorations have taken place but always bearing in mind the historic aspect of the place.

There are four buildings on the site of the Kolliger mill: the Script error: No such module "Lang". with the central heating installation and the water supply device, the residence (Script error: No such module "Lang".) with the water wheel, a former hen house and a former pigsty. The hen house and the pigsty have been renovated and made fit to live in. The pigsty is now the home of the owners and the former hen house is used as guesthouse (Script error: No such module "Lang".).

The walls of the buildings are half-timbered with slate between the timbers. The roofs too are covered with slate. Between the houses is an inner courtyard paved with cobblestones and with a fountain in the middle. There is a small chapel at the entrance of the grounds.

A branch of the famous historic pilgrim route to Santiago de Compostela (the Way of Saint James) runs along the Kolliger mill. Here, pilgrims can find a shelter for the night.
