In earlier times, the "Obere Lorenzmühle", one of the many mills along the Hinterbach, stood in this area (Monzelfeld district). The mill race can still be seen slightly above this square, as can the location of the mill building carved into the rock. The "Hinterbach" has its source in the Gonzerath area and is fed by more than 10 smaller or larger rivulets up to this point. After flowing through the town of Veldenz, it was given the name "Veldenzer Bach" in the official cadastre and finally flows into the Moselle after about 14 km near Mülheim. Until the middle of the last century, numerous grain and oil mills were powered by this stream, most of which were privately owned. Some were also community and society mills. A total of around 20 mills have been identified throughout the Hinterbachtal. Mills have not been in operation in Hinterbachtal for a long time. Some of these former mills have now been converted into residential or weekend houses and the locations of the other mills can now only be recognized by ruins. Source: text information board

In addition to committed citizens from Veldenz, young people who were in Veldenz in the summer of 2014 as part of a non-profit work camp organized by the International Youth Community Services (ijgd) also helped with the construction of the Graf Georg Johannes Weg. During their stay - the two bridges over the Hinterbach and various paths were built. Source: text information board

Very nice and weatherproof rest area at the Hinterbach. There is also a bridge that is not marked on many maps.
