    The oldest castle complex in Germany high above Lake Constance also includes a mill from the 17th century.
    Squeezed into the sandstone rock, the water power from a small brook was used here until 1952. To increase the efficiency, the water is directed over a channel to an overshot wheel. With a diameter of 7.80 m, it is one of the largest waterwheels still in use in Central Europe.

      The oldest castle complex in Germany high above Lake Constance naturally also includes a mill from the 17th century. Squeezed into the sandstone rock, the hydropower of a small brook was used here until 1952. To increase the efficiency, the water is directed over a channel to an overshot wheel. With a diameter of 7.80 m, it is one of the largest waterwheels still in use in Central Europe. The mill is located between the Old and New Castle, below the castle entrance.
