In the heart of Waischenfeld, a stone's throw from the historic Wiesent bridge, at Marktplatz 3 you'll find a true monument of Franconian milling history: the Wehrl city mill. The impressive structure captivates visitors primarily with its technical masterpiece – the mill houses one of the largest undershot water wheels in the entire Franconian Switzerland, which turns tirelessly and loudly in the waters of the Wiesent. The history of the house is inextricably linked to the Wehrl family, in whose proud possession the estate has been since 1698. Even a fire disaster in 1948, which destroyed the building down to its foundations, could not break the tradition: already the following year, the mill was rebuilt in its current, stately form. After grain from the surrounding area was diligently milled here until 2007, the historic water power today serves clean electricity generation for the region. An absolutely photogenic stop on any city tour, perfectly combining history and modernity.

Nankendorf Mill

Highlight • Structure

The impressive Nankendorfer Mühle is located directly on the Wiesent and was first mentioned in 1539. This means that she can look back on a long and eventful history, which unfortunately also includes a roof truss fire in the early 19th century. It has been used to generate electricity since 2004. You can find out more about their history here: nankendorf.de/2014/03/die-geschichte-der-nankendorfer-muehle

Brewery Inn Krug Bräu Breitenlesau

Highlight • Restaurant

The Brauereigasthof Krug is located in Franconian Switzerland on the old trade route between Nuremberg and Bayreuth. Beer has been brewed in the Krug family brewery in Breitenlesau since 1834. A total of six types of beer are produced here, as well as an amber cyclist and a Gaas-Seidla. The specialty of the house is the dark lager, which is valued not only in Upper Franconia, but far beyond, and of course you drink it. So I could enjoy the beer on one of my hikes in Merano on the Passer promenade.

April 17, 2025,Rundtour ab Breitenlesau durchs Aufseßtal, an Waischenfeld und Nankendorf vorbei, zurück nach Breitenlesau.

A very scenic route. However, I definitely recommend not riding a road bike! The Aufseßtal valley is beautiful, but there's a lot of gravel and large roots. The cycle path along the Wiesent River, on the other hand, was almost a bit boring.
