The Riedelsmühle, named after the nearby Riedelswald, was a grinding and grist mill. In it, grain was ground into flour and grist. It is not known when and by whom it was built. In 1819 it was newly "prepared" for his daughter and son-in-law by the manor owner on the Lispenhausen moated castle, Heinrich Wilhelm von Bartheld. Since 1958, the water from the Mühlgraben has been driving a turbine to generate electricity. Remains of the last wooden mill wheel can still be seen. Recommended literature: Chronicle 1200 years Lispenhausen, 1986, p. 154 and 155.

The well-kept half-timbered building of the former “Riedelsmühle” stands directly on the Haselbach. Fragments of the mill wheel are still clearly visible.

North of Lispenhausen, directly on the Haseltal cycle path, lies the Riedmühle, first mentioned in 1809.
It is worth taking a break here, as there are many sights to see (half-timbered houses, remains of a wooden mill wheel, turbine, etc.).
