Millstones were mined in the 18 meter deep cave at the top of the Nerother Kopf until the 18th century. The lava stone was not only mined for the production of millstones, but was also used to build the immediately adjacent Freudenkoppe Castle.

The Millstone Cave is located at the summit of the Neroth Head, a wooded hill of volcanic origin east of Neroth. The entrance is just below the Freudenkoppe castle ruins at an altitude of about 640 m and can be reached via a hiking trail. The cave is 18 meters deep and its vault up to 10 meters high. It is walkable, but unlit (torch required). Wikipedia
