The Kriehmühle is a former mill on the Feldaist, a river in Upper Austria. It was built in the 16th century and was in operation until 1969. Today the Kriehmühle is a tourist inn that offers regional specialties such as trout and natural sourdough bread. The Kriehmühle is also a popular starting point for hikes along the Feldaist, which offers a beautiful natural and cultural landscape.

In some places along the Feldaist you can see glacial stones that were transported here from the glaciers during the Ice Age. These stones are often very large and have a rounded shape. They consist of different types of rock that do not occur in the region, such as granite or gneiss. The glacier stones bear witness to the geological history of this landscape and offer interesting sights for hikers and nature lovers

Unfortunately the lock does not appear to be really used - it appears to be falling into disrepair. Very beautiful and worth a visit are the imposing old trees - a huge willow, a great red beech and also the pretty pond - which contains goldfish and is also a paradise for birds after the chirping.

In front of the chapel there is a strangely shaped stone with unnatural indentations - is that where the name comes from? Or was that the pedestal for the cross that apparently once stood here.
