The Hofer Mill was built in 1566. It was one of many mills in the Körsch Valley. The well in front of the mill, constructed in 1822, initially served as a hatchery for trout farming and later as a watering trough for horses.

A beautiful, wide avenue on a paved path that runs straight through the park.

Beautiful, rustic section along the Körsch in the forest.

According to the information board, an old dam was demolished here and the stream was renaturalized. A successful example of natural landscaping. The water ripples picturesquely over the stones. Only a little more accessibility would be desirable.

In 1784, Duke Carl Eugen of Württemberg (1728-1793) built a small pleasure palace on the outskirts of the village where he intended to relax from government business: "Carolus Otio" (Carl at Leisure) is carved into the triangular gable above the year. Modeled on the Wörlitz Park in Dessau, an English garden was laid out around the "Schlössle" with an artificial hilly landscape, water features with a walkable island, and various buildings, including an artificial ruin and a grotto. Today, it houses a therapeutic horseback riding center and is not open to the public.

Crown Prince Wilhelm, interested in horses and agriculture from his youth, found ideal conditions for his breeding plans at his summer residence in Scharnhausen in 1810. He acquired the Hof Mill, dating from 1566, located in the immediate vicinity of his castle. At the beginning of the 19th century, the "Hofer Mill" became part of the royal private stud farm Scharnhausen-Weil. The well, built in 1822, initially served as an incubator for trout breeding and later as a horse trough.

The village of Stockhausen was first mentioned in 1283. The oldest parts of the mill standing here today date back to 1555. It's very likely that there was already a mill here before that, and with the mill and agriculture, there were certainly horses. This tradition has continued to this day. The riding facility is located in the idyllic Körsch Valley between Kemnat and Scharnhausen. The first boarding horses arrived as early as the late 1960s. In 1974, the Stockhausen Riding Club was founded here, and the stables were remodeled and expanded.
