The Obermühle is a wonderful building. Nestled in a valley and surrounded by history (Roman kilns and, a dark part of history concerning witch hunts). It is a listed building and dates from the 15th century, but was operated until the 1970s. The building is private, but there is also a holiday apartment there: https://www.obermuehle-traiser.de/

The historic lime kilns in Flörsheim am Main form a significant industrial monument that vividly illustrates the pre-industrial working world of Hesse. Located on the country road towards Hochheim, the facility marks a place with centuries of tradition: while the roots of lime extraction here could date back to Roman times, the distinctive circular structures preserved today originate from the 18th century. For generations, the kilns were fired by family businesses in hard shift work to produce quicklime for the region's construction industry. Operations were only finally ceased in 1921. After the facility was left to decay for a long time, it was extensively excavated and preserved by Regionalpark RheinMain GmbH at the end of the 1990s. Today, the kilns are a popular destination for hikers and cyclists on the Regionalpark-Rundroute and serve as a publicly accessible testament to regional economic history.

Overall a very nice meeting point, especially if you are traveling with children. Playground, tower, pond and possibly also something to eat or drink - what more could parents want?!
