Karlsmühle

The Karlsmühle stands near the Ilm River beneath the Peace Bridge and Jena Street, with its partially unused structure covered in vegetation.

Built in the 13th century as Niedermühle, the structure served as a water mill, and in the 17th century, it expanded to include public baths.

The building holds rescued books from the Anna Amalia Library that survived the 2004 fire and require restoration work.

Located at Brühl 28 in Weimar, the mill received 600,000 euros in urban development funding for preservation of its oldest sections.

The mill's turbine building, previously used for tire storage, contains a concrete-sealed mill canal that prevents water flow through the structure.
