Wiesenkotten, Historic mill structure near Wupper River in Solingen, Germany
The Wiesenkotten site stands along the Wupper River between Müngsten and Burg districts, featuring a former grinding mill and natural surroundings.
Built in the first half of the 18th century, Wiesenkotten operated as a double mill for knife grinding before transitioning to saw manufacturing in the mid-19th century.
The mill structure transformed into a restaurant in the 1880s, serving travelers and hikers who crossed the Wupper River via the local ferry service.
The site connects to hiking trails along the Wupper River and provides access through Wiesenkotten Way from the Burger Landstrasse main road.
A prehistoric ring wall fortification remains on the western slope of the site, positioned on a mountain spur above the Wupper River.
