April 22, 2026, Roter Main

The Rote Main is the longer of the two headwaters of the Main river and significantly shapes the cityscape of Bayreuth. The river owes its name to the clay-rich soils of its catchment area. Especially after rainfall, reddish clay particles are washed into the water, giving it a characteristic reddish-brown color. It originates in the Lindenhardter Forst in the Franconian Switzerland, about 10 kilometers south of Bayreuth. At around 72 to 73 kilometers, it is significantly longer than the Weiße Main. Near Kulmbach (Schloss Steinenhausen), it merges with the Weiße Main to form the actual Main.

The Main floodplains between Bayreuther Nordring and Heinersreuth form a valuable recreational area, characterized by a wide, idyllic river landscape and the thematic Rot-Main-Auen-Weg. In this area, the Roter Main makes "beautiful swings" (meanders) through the floodplain. The landscape consists of species-rich meadows, tall herb communities, and remnants of floodplain forests. Part of the path is designed as an educational trail, where you pass wooden animal figures such as a beaver and an owl. The floodplains are a habitat for rare animal species such as the kingfisher or the stork. From Nordring, the path leads through open countryside for about 3.5 kilometers directly to Heinersreuth. The route is flat and often runs on paved or asphalted cycle paths, making it ideal for family outings. On the way to Heinersreuth and further to Unterkonnersreuth, you pass striking buildings such as the Masel-Mühle and the Wiesenmühle. The area is part of the Unteres Rotmaintal protected area, which prevents development and ensures the preservation of the floodplain.

The Masel-Mühle (also known as Mühle Heinersreuth) is a historical landmark right in the core of Heinersreuth. The name comes from the Maisel family (formerly often spelled "Masel"), who owned the mill for over 300 years, from 1709 to 2011. The mill was first documented in 1398 in the Landbuch A, making it one of the oldest sites in the municipality. The current main building is a stately, two-story sandstone block with a hipped roof. The facade is marked with the year 1846, although the core of the building is significantly older. Originally, it was operated as a classic grain mill with water wheels. In the 20th century, the technology was modernized and converted to turbine drive. Active milling for flour ceased in the second half of the 20th century. Like many mills on the Roten Main, the Masel-Mühle is now used for regenerative electricity generation using hydropower.
