Weir on the Waldach, 300-meter-long tailrace canal, iron overshot water wheel with spur gear transmission, 6 meters in diameter (originally with wooden paddles), 3-meter head, pump capacity: 3-5 HP depending on water inflow from the tailrace canal, double-acting plunger pump from Maschinenfabrik Esslingen from 1893 with a powerful suction and delivery pump and pressure vessel. In 1991, the plant was shut down due to contaminated spring water as a private water supply. The pump managed to pump 160,000 liters of fresh spring water directly into the houses and into the water reservoir in Bösingen, 2.3 km away and 140 meters higher, in 8 to 14 hours, depending on the water level of the Waldach. The spring yields 1-2 liters per second depending on the season.

The area around the mill looks like it's being redeveloped. Such a large area with a 300-year history needs to be taken care of.

The historic building complex dates partly back to 1728. The oil mill, painstakingly restored by hand, is thus the oldest surviving oil mill in Baden-Württemberg.

Freudenstadt Town Hall is located in the northeast corner of the market square. It was rebuilt in 1954 after its destruction in World War II, under the direction of architect Ludwig Schweizer. The 43-meter-high town hall tower marks the building as a prominent symbol of civic self-government. From the top, there is a magnificent view of the market square and the town's grid-like layout. In addition to the administrative offices of the town council, the upper floor houses the wood-paneled council chamber, whose end wall is adorned with portraits of Freudenstadt's mayors.
