[edit] Geography
Aumühle lies in the Sachsenwald, the largest forest in Schleswig-Holstein.
[edit] History
In 1350 Aumühle was first recorded as "Au-Mühle" (Mill on the black Au).
In 1871 Kaiser Wilhelm I of Germany gave the Sachsenwald to Otto von Bismarck in recognition of his services to Germany.
In 1884 a train stop "Aumühle" on the railroad Hamburg-Berlin was created, the construction of a train station started in 1909. Neighboring Friedrichsruh already had a train station in 1850, which was commonly used by Otto von Bismarck.
Karl Dönitz *http://www.karldoenitz.com/ moved to Aumühle after his release from Spandau Prison in 1956. He remained there until his death.
[edit] Town-twinning
Aumühle is twinned with Mortagne-sur-Sèvre (Vendée, France) and Sleen (today a part of Coevorden, Netherlands).
