Historic site and visitor centre
The origins of the Muerbelsmillen (“Mohrfels mill”) date back to the 11th century. Lately and until 1985, it operated as a mustard factory. Today, the site preserves the old mill technology, completed by an exhibition. The visitor discovers the large water wheel rotating in the canal
as well as the first floor where grinding was once carried out with the old millstones and gears. A historical film illustrates the operation of the mill and the production of mustard. A separate space is reserved for workshops.
