Intro
The fascinating waterwheel of the sawmill turns amidst picturesque mountain scenery on the way to the Klausen Pass at the entrance to the Brunni Valley. In 1991, this cultural object was extensively restored and put back into working order.
In Unterschächen on the way to the Klausen Pass (1140 m above sea level) lies an impressive historic sawmill dating back to 1850. The sawmill, which was restored in 1991 and is now powered by a waterwheel, is located in the middle of a picturesque mountain landscape next to the rushing Schächenbach stream at the entrance to the Brunni Valley. Now - as in 1850 - impressive tree trunks can be sawn up again. Also of interest is the exhibition of old woodworking tools and the historic fountain from around 1870, which was made by an Italian stonemason from a single block of granite.
