Eisfelder Talmühle is a narrow-gauge station on the Harzquerbahn and the Selketalbahn on the B 81 in the Bere valley halfway between Ilfeld and Hasselfelde at an altitude of 352 m above sea level. NN.
It was opened on September 15, 1898 by the Nordhausen-Wernigerode railway company (NWE, called Harzquerbahn) and on July 1, 1905 it was connected to the routes of the Gernrode-Harzgerode railway company (GHE, called Selketalbahn).
The distiller Karl-Heinz-Ludwig Eißfeldt (1787-1845) built a grist mill in the Beretal in 1826, which was named "Eisfelder Mühle" in May 1829 in his memory.
The restaurant business began in 1828 with Eißfeldt's application for a "brandy shop in the new mill".
Since the brandy production did not find the hoped-for sales, Eißfeldt applied in January 1834 to be allowed to separate timber.
A sawmill was built in 1835 and put into operation in 1837.
After the death of Karl-Heinz-Ludwig Eißfeldt in 1845, the eldest son applied to be taken over.
His request was rejected by the administration because it was feared that the services rendered by the Eißfeldt family could result in claims.
The value of the Eisfeld mill was therefore estimated and the heirs were paid their share; The owner was now the forest administration.
