Eselsmühle

Eselsmühle is a historic grain mill along a stream in the Seven Mills Valley that now operates as a restaurant and bakery. The buildings retain traditional wooden construction, working milling machinery, and multiple wood-fired ovens for baking.

The mill originated in earlier centuries as a typical production facility of the region, powered by the stream's flowing water. The operation evolved during the 20th century into the present-day restaurant and bakery business with modern additions.

The name comes from donkeys that once powered the mill's machinery. Today the site serves as a meeting place where visitors experience traditional craftsmanship and freshly baked goods from wood-fired ovens.

The grounds are accessible most days and offer parking along with clear signage for navigation. Visitors should be aware that active milling work occurs and certain areas may be restricted during production times.

The grounds house the Rudolf Gemlin Mineralogical Center, a geological collection space featuring fossils and minerals from the surrounding region. This small museum offers insights into the valley's geological history alongside the milling operations.
