The Upper Mill was built in 1689 and belonged to the nearby monastery Zwiefalten. Until before the Second World War it was used as a flour mill, then as agriculture. The mill wheel was in the 20. Century replaced by a turbine, the Mühlbach flows in the meantime underground through the property. The entire estate of the building and barn is a listed building, and the house was completely renovated in the 1990s and 2010s. With its massive walls, the building creates the ambience of a country castle. In the former mill hall, a false ceiling was moved and created on two Stochwerken living room. Here are the apartments today. The former miller's flat is inhabited by ourselves.
