Devil's Mill - Teufelsmühle

Description

An old Tyrolean legend has it that a farmer from Aldrans promised his soul to the devil in exchange for a mill built within one single night. At daybreak the only thing missing to complete the mill was the millstone. While the devil was dragging along the stone, a rooster crowed at the nearby Wiesenhof farm to welcome the new day. So the farmer got his mill and Satan had lost the deal.

In 1988 the ruins of the Devil’s Mill were restored (mural by Lydia Reitmeir).
