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.

At present, the pond is quite close to the state of the legend and not very attractive

Today the place to go for a covered wagon ride including a tractor and a beer mug... ok... Friday morning... that's what I call a start to the European Championship weekend

To what extent this shelter is freely usable, you should perhaps inquire in advance with a city administration… Beautiful spot on earth

Great place to take a break.

The "Jungfernloch" (Jungfern Hole) is a quiet spot with a small cottage and a deep forest pond in front of it. Unfortunately, today (May 1, 2024), no reflection could be seen because the water surface was not clear enough. Legend has it that a maiden from Homberg Castle drowned here along with her white horse many hundreds of years ago.

There is a lovely barbecue hut on the "Black Sea". The area in front of it is also ideal for a rest break.
