Thierbach Suspension Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Pretty suspension bridge connecting Thierbach & Zinnberg over the Mulde. It's best to switch to the Thierbacher side at this bridge if you are heading towards Waldenburg and want to hike along the Muldeweg. 🥾

Höllmühle Forest Inn

Highlight • Restaurant

In a beautiful landscape, surrounded by a lot of forest and away from any traffic noise, the Höllmühle is a popular destination and starting point for hikes through the Zwickauer Mulde valley, to Rochsburg or the wider area.
Our cozy restaurant, the idyllic terrace and the boathouse with boat rental invite you to linger. Free-roaming animals delight young and old. In the stylishly furnished guest rooms you can enjoy the peace and quiet and relax.

The convenient location between Leipzig and Chemnitz offers further scope for a wide range of activities.

The history of the mill
As early as 1300 the "Chapel of the wretched Marie" was located here. Later a mill was built in the gorge (cave), from which the name is probably derived. The Höllmühle has existed since 1538.


It mostly served as a grinding and cutting mill. In 1572 the mill was built from scratch. At that time, hunters from the Counts of Schönburg, who were referred to as chief forester, "sat" on the mill. Later the Höllmüller took over the pond management and in the last century he successfully tried to obtain the serving rights. The mill was connected to the inn. The now over 425 year old mill was reopened in 1992 after extensive reconstruction and modernization. ☺️👍🏻
