Klingenmühle Welzheim
The Klingenmühle was first mentioned in a document in 1668. The deep gorge (Klinge) at the upper reach of the Wies River gave the mill its name. The flour mill building still exists; however, the water wheel is missing. The sawmill has been long gone. It is supposed to have been a favourite haunt of the poet Justinus Kerner who immortalized it in his poem “Der Wanderer in der Sägemühle” (The wanderer in the sawmill). Today, with its ‘Antik Café & Biergarten’, the Klingenmühle is an idyllic destination for hikers and offers a wild and romantic backdrop for private and business events.
Opening times for the Antik Café & Biergarten: April 1 - October 31 Saturdays, Sundays and bank holidays . For events, times outside the regular opening times can be arranged.
