A special gem is this water mill from probably 1751 with an overshot water wheel (diameter: 3.6 meters) on a reservoir. It has a flour mill with a rare top engine. Two mills and a bag box are functional. You can visit the mill and have the owner explain how it works. The Koller stones from a former oil mill as well as a functional sawmill with a horizontal gate (about 100 years old) in a separate building and the drive by a water wheel are all to be admired.
