Mummelsee

Highlight • Lake

An old legend tells that in the past, nixies and dwarves, as well as a king, lived in the Mummelsee. On full moon nights, the nixies are said to have come to the Deckerhof in Seebach to do handicrafts, sing, and tell poems with the inhabitants.

Even today, the nixies visit village evenings. Of course, only in the company of their strict father, the Mummelsee King.

Hornisgrinde Tower

Busy on weekends. If you really want to enjoy the peace and beauty of the high moor, as well as the all-round view, you should make the ascent early in the morning or late in the evening.
