Hunte Bridge at Lake Tilly

Highlight • Bridge

Narrow pedestrian and cyclist bridge over the Hunte. The bridge creates a good, low-traffic connection between the cycle paths on both sides of the river.

It was the Hundsmühlen watermill, a gift from Count Johann XVI to his beloved wife Elisabeth, which was dismantled there in 1754 and rebuilt at this point on the Lethe.
The coat of arms that we find at the mill next to the entrance is that of the families von Schwarzburg and Hohenstein and the Counts of Oldenburg and Delmenhorst. It is therefore the coat of arms of the mother of Count Anton Günter, who died in 1612 and was so important for the history of Oldenburg, who saved Oldenburg from certain destruction during the 30-year war through skilful negotiations and generous gifts in the form of gold and horses. In the end, Oldenburg is now one of the few cities, along with Görlitz, that has never been damaged or destroyed by warlike rage over the centuries.
Today, of course, hardly anyone is interested in that, as our main concern is to be entertained with culinary delights. And as far as that is concerned, you are absolutely right here:
Above all, this watermill steeped in history is a popular excursion destination for us today with a recommendable gastronomic establishment, where tables can be reserved in advance for all kinds of occasions:

The coffee is fresh, the cake delicious, the slices generous and everything else is said to be a treat too.
