The Fulling Mill and Pumping Station at St. Jakob (km 1.9)

The waterworks that were built immediately after the St. Albanteich was extended include the St. Jakob pumping station with its striking elevated tank and, diagonally opposite, the fulling mill of the weavers’ guild. The property is now used by Pro Senectute.
