The Wespi Mill, a large, long-serving mill, is still occasionally in use, and the dull pounding of the millstone can be heard from afar. The newer tower now houses a residential building. The highest waterfall in the Töss, located at the confluence of the Vorderer and Hinterer Töss rivers near Steg, was artificially raised for the mill, and its diverted water falls onto a large waterwheel that drives a powerful millstone.
