This old mill has served as a sawmill for many decades and can now be visited on weekends. It is also a great place to take a break.

In the sawmill, restored 10 years ago, during the summer months you can find out how earlier logs were sawn with the help of hydropower. For your construction more than 100 years ago, electricity was also generated here for the adjoining estate and stored in lead-acid batteries for the night.

An old sawmill that can be visited on Sundays. An entertaining change that is fun.
