Montiola Pond in Thüringen
Highlight • Lake
Montiola Weiher, Thüringen
The Montjola-Weiher were created in 1837 for the use of water power for the textile industry in Thüringen. Besides that, the Montjola-Weiher have been a popular destination for excursions and a local recreation area.
The Montjola-Weiher (also: Montjola-See or Montiola-Weiher, 686 m above sea level) are located on the Quadern high plateau in the municipality of Thüringen.
The Montjola-Weiher were created in 1837 for the operation of the spinning and weaving mill founded by John Douglass and partners. In the 1980s, the ponds were dredged.
In 2016, Montjola-Weiher II was renovated and redesigned for approximately 250,000 Euros[2] and the infrastructure was slightly expanded.[3][4] At the same time, a "Historical Experience and Educational Trail" was established, illustrating the long history of water power utilization for industry in Thüringen. A significant portion of the costs was funded through the LEADER action program of the European Union.
In 2024, to relieve the ponds and as flood protection, an approximately 700-meter-long tunnel was laid using the Micromining method, which diverts the excess water of the Schwarzbach via the Schlosstobel into the Lutz. In spring 2025, the planting of the renatured pond took place with the participation of students from the Thüringen primary school.

Parish Church of St. Stephen (Pfarrkirche St. Stephan), Thüringen
Highlight • Religious Site
Parish Church of St. Stephan, Thuringia
The first building on this site is mentioned in the Rhaetian Imperial Surbar (a list of goods created around 850) as a place of worship. In 1360, what was probably the second church on this site was consecrated by Bishop Burcard von Chur. Various structural changes (installation of additional late Gothic altars around 1488, etc.) necessitated another consecration by the auxiliary bishop of Chur, Stefan Tschuggli, in 1509.
Today's church was rebuilt under the Weingartner abbot Sebastian Hyller between 1712 and 1714 due to the dilapidation of the previous building. Only the lower part of the tower on the north side is a little older; the tower itself has been raised with an attachment and an onion dome. It was not until July 13, 1721 that the church was inaugurated by the Chur Prince-Bishop Ulrich VII von Federspiel. The last renovation took place in 1979.
