Here is a weir from 1859/60, which was built together with an aqueduct and a canal to operate the wooden mill located downstream. It was used to raise the water level in order to be able to use the higher water drop. The weir guaranteed a constant and effective water supply to the mill. The location is to be restored, but is also an idyllic place in its condition
