Former Sawmill with Water Wheel

The original site of Sägmühle was flooded by the water of the Silbersee. Only the former mill race and some ruins in which a water wheel was installed remain.

Today, at the end of the week, we went around the Silbersee with a detour to Treffelstein. The small documentary center and the dragon tower are definitely worth it.
