"The Lochmühle once stood where the Balgenbächle joins the Gauchach south of Döggingen. The Lochmühle, built in the 17th century, was twice destroyed by flooding in the 19th century and then finally abandoned in 1896. To commemorate the fate of the Lochmühle a chapel was built (Lochmühlenkapelle). Nothing remains of the Lochmühle itself today, apart from a few moss-covered remains of the wall." (Source: alemannische-seiten.de/deutschland/huefingen_lochmuehle-gauchachschlucht.php).
A few meters further up a small path you come to the chapel.
