Is the road past the Urlau retention basin towards Boschen-Friesenhofen paved or is it a gravel path?

To us passersby, such a millpond, as it presents itself here, may seem ordinary, but there is another perspective: For example, in the world of Otfried Preußler (1923–2013), who became famous for his imaginative children's books, it looks quite different: Here, such a millpond is also the incredibly exciting habitat of a family of water sprites. His still-popular book, "The Little Water Sprite," tells wonderful stories of the adventures experienced by the family's youngest members. On an audiobook CD, the water sprite mother sings her son to sleep: "Little water sprite, close your eyes and let yourself rest a little, I'll sit here for a while and watch you sleep. May your dreams guide you and touch you wonderfully, and when you wake up again, a new year will begin for you."

The Water Gate in Isny is a historic city gate, first mentioned in 1337 and part of the city wall. It served not only as a watchtower but also as a prison, where many prisoners could remain for over 500 years.

The Frauenzell Gate is the southern exit of Center Parcs Park Allgäu and the starting point for the popular Bergle Loop, a short but scenic hiking tour. From here, a cycle and footpath initially leads along the country road toward Frauenzell, before branching off via root paths up to the Vogelberg mountain. A magnificent panorama of the Alpine foothills awaits at the top 🏞️.
