The list of historic mills in Aachen offers an overview of the most famous former water mills on the banks of the Aachen streams on the present-day territory of the city of Aachen. More than 70 mills could be proven on the basis of the sources and substantiated with data, although there were also other mills that have been historically forgotten or about which there is no information. The proven Aachen mills had once served, among other things, as grain, grist or oil mills as well as copper, grinding, fulling or dyewood mills and most of them had an overshot water wheel. From the early modern period onwards, they formed the basis for Aachen's economic rise, especially in the area of the cloth and needle industry in the 18th and 19th centuries, as evidenced, for example, by the history of the cloth industry in Aachen.
