    Interesting lost place, but a private property. The house and barn should not be entered out of respect for the owners.

    The uneven water flow of the brook and the arduous paths in and out of the valley led after the war that Sabelsmüller gave up his idyllic mill in 1950 and built a large new building on the edge of [Zilshausen], half of which is a residential building and in the the other half houses the electrically operated mill.

    In 1962, the Rhineland Regional Association filmed a documentary documenting the mill wheel's shaft being hand-renewed. YouTube features two short videos in which an oak tree is first felled to make the new shaft. The second part shows the shaft being turned in the mill's courtyard. Very interesting and brings this lost place back to life in your mind's eye...
