The large stele at the Eisenhütte dam was re-erected in May 2025 and is intended to commemorate the former St. Michaelis Ironworks. This ironworks used to be located a few hundred meters further on the other side of the road (from 1729 to 1860). Later, the site was first home to a grain mill, and finally to a sawmill powered by a waterwheel in the Aa River. The farming community/Hook in the "tri-border area" of Liedern-Lowick-Spork, which emerged from workers' houses and a small chapel after the foundry was founded, was called "Iserhütt" (= ironworks). The name of this farming community/Hook is written on the stele in several languages: Iserhütt, Eisenhütte, Ijzerhut

The large landmark/stele, which clearly marks the actual site of the former Michalis Hut for all visitors, is now finally in place at the dam. This six-meter-high stele made of stainless steel is visible from afar.
It's beautifully done. One side shows "Iserhütt" in flat relief, and the other side reads "Eisenhütte."
