In 1927 the master miller Alfred Demuth bought the lower mill, which was rebuilt in 1898. This mill continued to work for bakeries and farmers. In 1979 the permanently privately run mill was shut down. Commercial accommodation was set up in the building.

Orlamünde Ice Cream Parlor

Highlight • Cafe

In the Nitz ice cream parlor, I think the best ice cream in the area, and that for just 70ct the ball. Depending on the season, there are more unusual variants, such as nut, melon or cookie, in addition to the common varieties. Each variety is made by the Nitz family themselves. Even coffee, cake and sundaes are always a poem and highly recommended! The hall is open from April to October from 10am to 7pm. You can sit both indoors and outdoors. (Dogs allowed outside)

Confluence of the Orla and Saale Rivers

Here the Orla flows into the Saale, as the name suggests. Very original, an idyllic place.

View of Leuchtenburg

Highlight • Viewpoint

This section offers you a great view of the Leuchtenburg castle - one of many historic buildings that you pass on the Saale cycle path.

A detour is definitely worth it, because here you can marvel at the largest porcelain vase and the smallest teapot in the world and - quite unusually - visit a porcelain church.
