A beautiful, idyllic place.

The Mehlbach pond, which has nothing to do with flour or mills, because it has too little water for a mill and has never powered one, is currently being renovated by Hessen Forst. The dam is being rebuilt. For those interested: The Mehlbach is actually called Molbach, which comes from the Middle High German expression mol and means newt, lizard. Fifty years ago the first syllable was pronounced short, i.e. Melbach, or even Mölbach. That is why the old cadastral maps of the Grand Duchy still say Molbach. It's a bit of a shame that the original name has been parodied here out of ignorance. See the Lagis-Hessen State Archives for more information! I've attached a map section to the pictures. It used to be one of the ponds that had to supply the fish, when meat was still Sunday food.

Alsfeld, the pearl of the Vogelberg... a beautiful half-timbered town and cultural center of the region

A few steps into the forest provide a better view of the geotope.

Tip: Audio Walk through Alsfeld The audio walk guides the listener past Alsfeld's various landmarks, providing interesting facts about the buildings, telling exciting stories from the past, and informing about the town's development. Immerse yourself in Alsfeld's past and listen to the audio files. Please take your time; the audio files can be paused at any time. This way, you can visit one of the many shops or stop off at a cozy restaurant whenever you feel like it. You can start the first audio file on the market square. Enjoy! -> Link to the audio files and source of the text: https://www.alsfeld.de/sehenswuerdigkeit/audiowalk/

The historic town hall of the Hessian town of Alsfeld[2] stands free and eaves-supported on the town's market square at Am Markt 1. The ground floor consists of three stone arcades. The two upper floors and the three attic floors of the steep gable roof, on the other hand, are constructed of timber-framed, frame construction. The two projecting floors rest on corbels. The market-facing façade and the rear of the building are each dominated by two centrally arranged bay windows extending over the first and second floors. These bay windows are supported by corbels from the stone ground floor and crowned with pointed spires. The gable ends also feature bay windows. Inside, the original room layout is still preserved on the second floor: a larger room with a central column, originally a "dance floor," now a meeting room. And a smaller room, the "Small Room," originally a courtroom, now used by the registry office as a wedding hall. A richly carved ornate door leads to it. Both rooms have ornamental paintings on the walls and ceilings from 1577 and 1655, respectively, which were restored in 1911. A wooden spiral staircase connects the floors.[1] (Source: Wikipedia)
