Minihof-Liebau: Kornweg, Jost Mill and Film History

Minihof-Liebau offers several distinct points of interest for a stay: the Kornpfad traces the history of farming from the Neolithic period to modern agricultural methods, while the Kornweg links named stops. There is also a mill and a museum with film-related items and collection pieces from various decades. To help you choose, it is useful to decide first which aspect interests you most: agricultural development, grain processing, wildlife or film history.

Kornpfad and Kornweg

The Kornpfad in Minihof-Liebau tells the story of farming from the Neolithic period to modern methods. This broad time span makes development itself the focus: the emphasis is not just on a single stage of work, but on how agricultural methods have changed over many eras. Those interested in how farming has evolved will find a different perspective here than at a single mill or with a single exhibit. The Kornpfad therefore focuses on history, while the Kornweg connects specific stops.

The Kornweg begins at the aviaries, a species conservation project in Minihof-Liebau, and ends at Jost Mill. Naturwinkel Saufuss is a midway stop along the Kornweg. This identifies the starting point, intermediate stop and destination. The stops also point to different themes: species conservation, farm animals and the mill. The Kornweg thus connects agriculture with other perspectives on nature and grain processing.

Jost Mill and Naturwinkel Saufuss

At Jost Mill, visitors can experience the journey from grain to bread up close. Tours are available on request and may cover types of grain and flour, how to identify and use them, and nutrition tips; cooking and baking courses may also be included. The topics therefore range from distinguishing between different varieties to putting them to use. If you are particularly interested in one of these aspects, you can mention it when making your request. As the destination of the Kornweg, Jost Mill also provides a tangible point of reference for grain processing.

Naturwinkel Saufuss complements this mill-focused perspective with the subject of animals. Farm animals are on display there. Injured wild animals are also taken in, cared for until they recover and, if possible, released back into the wild. The display of farm animals and the care of injured wild animals are distinct aspects of the facility; for the wild animals, the possibility of a later return to nature is explicitly part of their care. A prior telephone appointment is required for a guided tour of the entire facility.

Film and Retro Museum Minihof Liebau

The Film and Retro Museum Minihof Liebau consists of four exhibition rooms and is devoted to film history and nostalgic cultural items from various decades. Its exhibits include film posters, portraits of stars, film programmes and autographs, as well as historic playback devices and special rarities. This brings together memorabilia and materials related to films and stars with the technology used to play them. The museum is aimed at visitors of all ages and offers a distinct cultural focus alongside farming, the mill and Naturwinkel.
