Nußdorfer Mühlenweg: Where Water Power and Local History Come Alive
On Thursday, October 15, 2026, the Nußdorfer Mühlenweg takes you deep into the local and technical history of Nußdorf am Inn. Along the historic mill stream, the guided city and theme hike combines impressive landscapes, traditional craftsmanship, and local history into a unique discovery experience.
18 Stations Along the Mill Stream
The approximately 3.5-kilometer historical trail unveils 18 stations dedicated to water power, local development, and historical trades. In the past, numerous businesses harnessed the energy of the artificially created mill stream. Grain mills, sawmills, a gypsum mill, a hammer forge, a tannery, a threshing barn, and an electricity plant tell the story of a time when water shaped the economic development of the village.
A Tunnel, A Robber, and Bavaria’s Last Preserved Oil Mill
The tour surprises with unusual stories and vivid insights. A tunnel, a robber story, and Bavaria's last preserved oil mill give the walk its unique character. Historical facilities and relics make technical history immediately tangible and show how closely craftsmanship, everyday life, and the natural environment in the Inn Valley were connected.
History You Can Touch in the Pre-Alpine Region
The mill stream accompanies participants through woods, villages, and the mill valley. An authentic atmosphere is created between the watercourse, old industrial sites, and pre-Alpine landscapes. The stations provide expert knowledge about the function of the drive canal, the use of water power, and the development of local businesses. Special attention is given to the Sagmeister saw, which was already mentioned in 1537 and once supplied timber for buildings in Nußdorf.
Meeting Point and Schedule
The tour begins at 5:00 PM at the Nußdorf am Inn Tourist Office located at Brannenburger Straße 10. The walk lasts about one and a half hours. The event takes place mostly outdoors; weather-appropriate clothing and sturdy footwear ensure a pleasant discovery experience. A section of the path between the sawmill and the hammer forge is not well-suited for wheelchairs.
