    Former glass bead manufactory. Exciting table telling of the history of manufacture. Worth to read.

      Christian Herrmann In 1882, Christian Herrmann from Warmensteinach in the district of Birnstengel built a glass bead hut - a so-called "Podderlahüttn". The vernacular name "Podderla" for pearl derives from "PaternosterPerle" and means rosary bead. Because pearls used to be made into beads for rosaries.

        Expresses sympathetic young people who lovingly take care of their animals on the part-time farm and strive for a very personal path to ecological agriculture. Their "mountain-view alpacas" and the highland cattle they keep have a very calming effect on visitors.
