Hammermühle Border Crossing on the Eger

Here at the foot of Hohenberg on the Eger is the border crossing Hammer mill in Egertal, which is used by hikers and cyclists. In addition to interesting information boards is also a rest area with tables and benches, and the preaching chair at this point. With an attached QR-code further information can be called up.

The hamlet of Hammermühle lies in the valley floor just before Hohenberg. Here the Czech border meets the Eger and for a few hundred meters the middle of the river forms the border between Bavaria and the Czech Republic. The hammer mill, which processed iron, dates back to the 15th century.
There is a small border crossing here for pedestrians and cyclists.

The hammer mill is located directly on the Eger. There are only 3 houses, including the so-called Cofin House. The cross-border hiking trail to Liba (Liebenstein) goes between the houses. The hammer mill is right on the Czech border. There are all kinds of animals in the small hamlet. A must for animal lovers. Swans, sheep, geese, chickens, ducks and other animals can be seen.
