Good cuisine in a wonderful location. Children's playground available. Plenty of outside and inside seating.

June 16, 2023, Paddelweiherhütte am Paddelweiher

Beautiful and quiet lake with the possibility to go boating. According to sources, an early medieval farmstead was also lost in this paddling pond.
