Aqueduct of Mühlberg

The aqueduct in Mühlberg is an artificial confluence of the Weidbach and Burgbach rivers. In earlier times, such an aqueduct was used to carry the Weidbach water to the Steigmühle in order to ensure its operation. The aqueduct was renovated in 1993. It is located near Thomas-Müntzer-Straße in a niche along the stream, between the houses.

The artificially created wooden stream of the Weidbach crosses the Burgbach as an "aqueduct". The Weidbach used to be led from there to the Steigmühle. Today, the Weidbach flows into the Burgbach at this point and continues as the Weidbach through Mühlberg past the Steigmühle, Graupen- and Ölmühle until the Weidbach flows into the Apfelstädt in Neudietendorf.
