The new graduation mill was built in 1997 for the 750th anniversary of the city south of the old Gradierweges. At a length of 50 meters, the thorn walls are 8 meters high, the built-in, but not publicly accessible, staircase tower has a height of 14 meters.

The plant is fed with the brine of the nearby spring »Neuer Sprudel«. The brine is pumped into a large gutter on the graduation tower, which in turn feeds the gutters on the long sides above the thorn hedge.

From the notches and taps of these grooves, the brine trickles into the thorns. The falling drops are crushed (aerosols) so that they can be used for therapeutic inhalation inhalation. Grading means gradually increasing the brine content of the water by draining it several times.

The former graduation mill, planned and built by Rev. Philipp Korte, had a length of almost 600 meters and was shut down with the advent of rock salt in 1908. The entire complex was demolished in 1920/21.
