A local we met on the train recommended this ice cream parlor to us. Everything here is made fresh daily from the best ingredients. It's worth getting there early - when everyone's there, everyone's there! The owner is very likeable and has funny sayings in store. Anyone on the Leineradweg will find an excellent refreshment here!

The small Protestant Lutheran church in Mollenfelde was open and contains a rich interior, including galleries and a pulpit altar. The tower is significantly older than the nave.
