In the icy cold of winter, Dachsenfranz sought – and was always offered – overnight refuge in the mills. But he always had an eye for the pretty maids who worked in the mills and whose bed chambers our Müller-Liesel room recalls.
Dachsenfranz made his famous healing ointment from badger fat and wild herbs. A female herbalist is supposed to have advised him about this. There is still speculation as to whether he had a relationship with her.
The great general would have had more comfortable accommodation than Dachsenfranz. Honour to whom honour is due. The same applies to you as our guest.
Dachsenfranz was also known as the king of the forest and often spent time with hunters and foresters. If the deer stands in the wild had been as comfortable as the one in this room, he would not have slept in his cave on a bed of leaves and straw.
