In the middle of the town of Waischenfeld is the town mill with one of the largest undershot water wheels in Franconian Switzerland. It has been owned by the Wehrl family since 1698. In 1948 the mill burned down to its foundations. It was rebuilt in its current form in 1949. The mill is still in operation, grinding rye and wheat from the region, for the region.

Just great to look at 👍

It's a shame that these mills are so rarely seen.
