Idyllic spot on the Stör (dead end), but is closed off because the crossing over the very old barrier is not safe.

Yes, I can confirm that. It would be interesting to know what era it comes from. The farm also has an old building by the lake. With a small tower clock. Very nice place. And that was the highlight of the tour.
