    Tips

    October 6, 2022

    The origin of the beech mill between Soisdorf and Wenigentaft probably dates back to the 16th century. The state border between the Grand Duchy of Saxe-Weimar (GSW) and the Kingdom of Prussia (KP) ran right through the property. Later also the “state border west” of the GDR. Boundary stones with the abbreviations "GSW", "KP" and "DDR" can still be seen along the way today. A well that supplied the miller family with drinking water, the temporary home that was to serve as living space for the old farmers after the farm was handed over to a successor, the shed and the bakehouse were all in Thuringia. On September 14, 1961, everything, including the 100-year-old evictions house (half-timbered house), was demolished by the GDR border troops in front of the eyes of the owners. Three years later, with a heavy heart, the family decided to move into a new home about 500 meters south. The foundations of the moving house and remains of the fountain can still be seen today.

      The old beech mill suffered a terrible fate when the former border troops demolished half of the property in 1961. The beech mill from the 16th century was destroyed by the course of the inner-German border.
