Unfortunately, Der Wilde Maa had to close in 2022 due to post-Corona difficulties and a death in the host family, after 140 years.

Here you'll find a lovely, shady picnic area on the lakeshore. Small boats can also be rented for a trip on the lake in the summer. Children who aren't tired from cycling can continue to have fun on the playground.
