      At the double bridge, a pure stone bridge from the time of rafting, there is a rest area.

        Beautifully situated with a rest area, from here you can continue your hikes in various directions.

        At the double bridge, a stone bridge dating back to the time of rafting, the Gahlenbach flows into the Rote Göltzsch. An idyllic reservoir lies above the Gahlenbach. The Rote Göltzsch flows towards Hohofen and flows into the Weiße Göltzsch at the exit of Ellefeld. In the 16th century, processes for the extraction and processing of metals gradually developed below the double bridge.

        Ore (red iron ore) around the Röthelstein was crushed and smelted in a specially built blast furnace. It was then processed in a stamp mill (hammer). The required blower was powered by water. A wire mill, where brass blanks were formed into coarse wire, also operated with the same power.
