history

The first Molkenhaus was in 1665 the bailiff Johann Heinrich von Uslar on the eastern slope of the rope mountain , near the Fuhlelohnbach , build. After this was given up in 1822, the second whey house was built on the Hasselteich . Both houses were once used to milk the cattle near mountain pastures without driving them to the distant farms. They were owned by the Bündheim -Bad Harzburg manor . From 1891 the whey house developed into an inn ; a game feeding point , where game can be observed, has been added. In 1973 the former whey house was burned down and in 1976 replaced by a new building in the same place, which was used as a restaurant until the beginning of 2019. The building has been empty since February 2019.
