The Hilster Mill, located on the Trualb, was operated as a grinding mill using water power. Unfortunately, the year it was created is unknown. It was first mentioned in documents in 1583 and, after various interruptions (2 wars, 1 closure of a different kind), it was finally shut down in 2009. Today it's lovely to sit here with rushing streams as refreshing background music.
