A beautiful place with old buildings

We bought excellent apple pie there. Lovely little shop and very friendly staff. Full recommendation

Shortly after the Bienwald Mill on the left side there is a small single trail through the middle of the forest. It is a little overgrown but rideable. It was definitely fun 😊

a nice rest area. With trash can and crossroads.

A rest area on the border with a mill and weir with fish ladder on the Lauterlinie. For me it is the outstanding sight here far and wide. Text of the small information board: “The Bienwaldmühle, first mentioned in a document in 1152, was owned by the Bishopric of Speyer for centuries. This mill location, one of the very first in the Palatinate, was assigned to the Weißenburg Monastery. In 1618 the mill became private property. The property consisted of a grain mill, oil mill, sawmill and hemp grater. During the War of the Spanish Succession (1701 - 1714), the Bienwaldmühle was part of the “Lauter Line” established by Marshal de Villars as a fortified base. A late Baroque mansard building was built here in the middle of the 18th century. In 1942 the damaged building was rebuilt in the old style. The first water turbine was installed in 1912. The existing grinding aisles were replaced by roller mills. The last of three original Greek-designed water wheels remained until 1930. The facilities of the grain mill and the hydroelectric power plant have been adapted and modernized to meet technical requirements in recent years. The Wieslauter still powers the rye and wheat mill to this day. Hydropower also generates electricity for the local grid. The Bienwaldmühle has been owned by the Rieger family for generations. Sales of grain and natural food products (west entrance).”

A cross on one side and a key on the other. This means that it must be a very old boundary stone that marked the lower Mundat Forest! Information about this can be found here, for example: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mundatwald

interesting object, here you can also just sit down and relax and listen to the sound of the running water

Here the bike path goes on the old railway line. On October 1, 1947, the route was closed to passenger traffic, and the section from Scheibenhard to Wissembourg continued to be used for freight traffic (starch and oil) until 1958. The Lauterbourg–Lauterbourg North section was decommissioned on November 12, 1954, followed by the Scheinhard–Lauterbourg North section on December 7, 1965 and the Wissembourg–Disc hard section on October 29, 1970.
