It's always worth a stop here, there's something to eat and delicious beer. It's self-service, but the staff are always very friendly.

Super nice idea from the villagers. I've sat here many times and taken great selfies with her and my friends, so a short stop is always worth it!

Besides the beautiful graduation tower, this is where winegrowing begins and it's a great area for relaxed and enjoyable cycling.

Back then it was without a roof, today it has one and right next to it a beautiful sundial - both located directly on the cycle path.

🏛️ Historical Overview - Built around 1750 as a classic watermill. - 1886: The mill burned down but was soon rebuilt. - 1905: Mill operations ceased, and the buildings were given new functions. --- 🏭 Industrial Use - Around 1900, Paul Oschatz took over the mill and founded the "Marmor- und Metallwerk Hetschburg," which initially produced artificial marble and later even explosives. - From 1915 onwards, the mill became the metal goods factory "Possin & Döpping GmbH," which produced silver-plated murals and luxury items. - Production continued until 1988, despite environmental concerns—including a 1921 study that investigated a link between the factory and an eye disease in brown trout.
