Menzlesmühle Kaisersbach

The Menzlesmühle, first mentioned in a document in 1305, once possessed two mill-races drawn from  the Gauchhauserbach and the Hagbach. Four water wheels drove the mill, three breastshot water  wheels for the flour mill and one undershot water wheel for the sawmill, which was still in existence  until the first half of the twentieth century. Today there remains one breastshot water wheel. In 1721 it  fell victim to a fire and was rebuilt in its present form. The Menzlesmühle, with much of its mill  furniture and equipment still intact, is one of the jewels of the Mill Hiking Trail.
