The information panel describes the historic waterwheels on the Regnitz River near Baiersdorf. These wheels are a unique cultural monument in the region, once used to irrigate the surrounding meadows. Background Information Purpose: For centuries, the waterwheels were used to pump warm, bacteria-rich surface water from the Regnitz River onto the sandy soils of the irrigated meadows. History: In the 18th and 19th centuries, over 200 of these wheels operated between Schwabach and Forchheim. Today, only a few surviving examples can be seen near Möhrendorf.

Cultural Monument: The remaining Möhrendorf waterwheels are recognized as intangible cultural heritage and are maintained by associations and dedicated farmers. ... (Source via AI mode)

The Dachsbach stream is first documented in 1129 – a knight named Heinrich von Dahspach sold one of his properties to the St. Michael's Monastery in Bamberg for 80 silver marks. The place name derives from a watercourse of the same name, the prefix of which may be dahs (Middle High German for "dachs"). Accordingly, it could have referred to a stream where badgers are found.[7] The town's coat of arms also refers to this meaning.
