Hello Rolf and everyone else and thanks for the pictures. I worked in small hydropower for 20 years and don't want to be a smartass. Above this barrier there is a weir that separates the stream and the canal to direct water to the power plant. The water is deliberately dammed up to a certain height in the canal, which increases efficiency. The water level was regulated with the very old wooden gate (barrier), but the necessary canal to the Möhrenbach unfortunately no longer exists. I can't say whether they operate the power plant, it was too cold for me to look at the facility.

Historic Old Town of Pappenheim

Highlight • Historical Site

A small but charming town over which Pappenheim Castle towers. Pappenheim lies in a loop of the Altmühl. You should definitely take a tour here and visit the castle.

A church made of willows in the countryside. It's worth a visit. Nature and contemplation complement each other perfectly.

Willow Church Pappenheim

Highlight • Religious Site

The Willow Church in Pappenheim is an impressive structure, if you can call it that. After all, this open-air church consists only of a metal frame over which plants climb. In summer, the church is beautifully green. The plants allow the church to grow and change every year.

It was planted by the Evangelical Youth of Bavaria during the Easter holidays of 2007 and will soon celebrate its twentieth anniversary.

The Willow Church can be visited at any time and offers a lovely setting for a rest.
