It seems that the focus here is not just on the abstract pattern of the turning spokes/cross/mandala/swastika, but on the concrete building itself

It makes perfect sense that the focus is also on the tower of the
windmill, a form very similar to a rocket.  And that door opening and
closing?  That was the Gottfried preparing for flight.
