    Between the ruins of an old mill on the Baybach is a large picnic bench for a break on the idyllic stream below the Rabenlay rock.

      About the Weins-Antone-Mühle, also called Reitzenmühle, it says in the book "From Mühle zu Mühle" by Werner Stoffel and Heinrich Merten: ,, ... Further down the stream stood the Weins-Antone-Mühle, the one after the The existing foundation walls were a fairly extensive property. You can still see an archway that led from the house into the open. A fallen spruce has lay over the walls, the stones are thickly mossy, hardly a ray of sun penetrates this dark, gloomy place. How the name reveals that it was an Anton wine that came from the wine mill further down and married here. According to old folks, it must have been a bitterly poor family who could not keep the milling business going for long. No wonder, because how should the customers get lost in the remote place. The building material of the mill was sold for demolition. Source: Text information board

        It is hard to imagine that human settlements could have formed in this narrow, wild valley. Here remains of ruins, that mills once stood here.
        The Weins-Anton oil mill, for example, which was built as an oil mill on a small plain between a mountain and a stream. As the name suggests, it was an Anton wine that came from the wine mill further down and settled here.
        A little further down the stream, remains of the wall from the pub or irritant mill.
