ラウター・ベルンスバッハの滝・トップ12

休憩ベンチのある橋から小道を登っていくと、素晴らしい景色が広がり、小川のせせらぎしか聞こえなくなります

A wonderful sight in winter when it's nicely frosty.

a very nice corner

Small, rushing waterfall with inflow to the Sosa dam.

The largest waterfall in Saxony and one of the highest German waterfalls outside the Alps is located in the immediate vicinity of Blauenthal. This former site of a flour and board mill was bought by Andreas Blau around 1530 and converted into a hammer mill. After the First World War, the owner of the paper factory had a new ditch dug above a steep rock face in order to use the water to drive his turbines. On Sundays and public holidays, the machines stood still and the water rushed down into the valley.

On the hiking trail around the Sosa dam you pass this waterfall and it looks particularly beautiful in autumn.

A very nice detour.

The area natural monument Mühlgraben Sendig-Mühle is the oldest paper mill in Zwönitz, it was first mentioned in 1540. In 1545, the Elector of Saxony granted her the privilege of making paper from rags. After the Brüderlein papermaking family, the Sendig family owned the mill from 1695 to 1858. In addition to manual paper making, press shavings were also produced from around 1800. The old mill burned down in 1867 and larger and more modern factory buildings were built. Paper production ended in 1877 and the entire property became the property of Oscar Koch in 1886. The ruins with the wheel chamber and the waterfall were demolished in 1980. The reconstruction was carried out by ABM. (https://www.outdooractive.com/mobile/de/poi/greifsteinregion/die-sendig-muehle/59576330)
