The Schollenmühle is a former peat factory. It is located in the middle of the Bannriet nature reserve, between Altstätten and Oberriet. You can literally see from the angled, crooked buildings that they have stories to tell about the peat and the landscape. Under the auspices of the Pro Riet Rheintal association, the former peat factory was converted into an information center, which was opened to visitors to the nature reserve in 20210. At the same time, significant ecological improvements were made to the Schollenmühle site and its wider surroundings. Today, an exhibition provides information about the nature reserve and peat extraction. Various paths, two observation huts, a viewing tower, an underwater cube and a peat cube allow visitors to observe the area from different perspectives. BirdLife Switzerland and the Swiss Ornithological Institute in Sempach acted as project partners.
