Water tunnel of the former Griessel mill
At the entrance to Pavlíno údolí was the oldest mill in Jetřichovice, which was built at the turn of the 15th and 16th centuries. After the building fell into disrepair in later times, the Griessel family rebuilt the mill. Under Josef Müller, who came from Krásná Lípá, the mill was converted into a yarn spinning mill, which was in operation until 1905. In order to improve the water supply and thus increase the output, a moat was dug into the rock with a cross-section of 0.5 m and driven through the sandstone in front of the factory as a tunnel. Judging by the inscription, this could have happened in 1837...

Today, this tunnel can be walked through to follow the path around the Paulinensee. However, it is somewhat hidden from the hiking trail and not easy to find...

When visiting the Paulinengrund, the attentive hiker should not miss this highlight, a little off the hiking trail but still easy to find. Children in particular find it particularly exciting to walk through the former water tunnel... 👍
