It's very impressive to cycle right next to the cliffs. The cycle path is in good condition, but quite narrow.

From 987 to 1472, a collegiate foundation was located near the church, which was subsequently relocated to Langensalza.[1] Today, the Church of St. Peter and Paul belongs to the Mühlhausen church district of the Evangelical Church in Central Germany.[2] Oberdorla's church is one of the oldest in all of Thuringia. Count Wigger I had it built in 987 on the Schenkenberg hill in the town center.[3] The present hall church was rebuilt around 1275 in place of the previous church from 987. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stiftskirche_St._Peter_und_Paul_(Oberdorla)

The Probstmühle (Provost's Mill) in Oberdorla is one of the seven mills that once stood, or still stand, on the Siebenmühlenbach stream. The name Probstmühle (Provost's Mill) or Herrenmühle (Herren's Mill) probably dates back to the 11th century, the year it was built. At that time, the mill belonged to the church foundation and was thus subordinate to the parish priest (Provost). Like most mills, the mill is a grain mill. Here, the grain brought by farmers was ground into flour, semolina, and rye flour. https://www.gemeinde-vogtei.de/verzeichnis/visitenkarte.php?mandat=193740
