    Halfway between the Kochschen Mühle and the Unterer Eisenhammer industrial museum is the tranquil rest area. It is the point above the Exter, where the open mill ditch branched off to Kochschen Mühle until the 1960s. The weir was blown up, the Mühlengraben canalized. Only the fragments with the inlet to the mill ditch are still visible. Big stones break the watercourse. A few water bumps along the way point to the alleged place where Johann Wolfgang von Goethe made a small ink drawing around 1783 during his visit to Exten. The original has been shown in the Museum of Fine Arts in Leipzig since 2008. A reproduction can be seen in the Heimatstube - museum for village culture, Am Anger 2.

      The fact that places steeped in history can also be beautiful at the same time is best experienced here.👍
