L. Hergott Sentier nature
The Eschviller mill trail takes you on a tour of a well-preserved landscape along a beautiful, bucolic valley. After crossing the small Schwalb river, which once powered 26 mills, you'll reach Ormersviller via a path through the fields, as far as the magnificent Saint-Joseph chapel.
Don't leave the Schwalb valley without visiting the Eschviller mill and its three exhibitions. At the grain mill, you can watch flour being made by a paddle wheel that turns as it did in the old days, turning the gears and the stone millstone. The sawmill, meanwhile, explains how planks are made, again using water power. The apiary will introduce you to the fascinating world of bees and the beekeeper job.
Along the way, you'll also see the "Friedenskreuz" translated to the peace cross 300 m from the german border, the orientation table and the magnificent view from the Saint-Joseph chapel.
Picnic tables are located near the Moulin d'Eschviller, at the Waldbrunnen spring.
