The rattle mill

The Klappermühlchen is a miniature mill house in the Alzenau city forest. It has a small undershot water wheel, which is operated by the hydropower of the access ditch. Part of its water is bundled via an artificially created channel, the mill channel, and directed onto the mill wheel. This then turns a disc that is studded with dwarf figures. The dwarfs wander through a window inside the house. With the help of this disc, four tiny hammers are moved that hit two different metal plates. Due to their different lengths and strengths, each time the hammer blows, a different tone is created. The “rattling” of the mill can be heard from several hundred meters away. The mill house was built in 1913 and is now cared for on a voluntary basis. The area around the Klappermühlchen is fenced and must not be entered.

Was a nice tour over Barbarossaquelle to Klappermühlchen in the middle of the forest. Should have done before. 😊

For a long time in its place, but for the people from the area a must for a visit: the Klappermühlchen, where the dwarves tirelessly rattle day and night with their hammers ..... and you can hear it a long way ....
