From here a nice turnoff to Sophienreuth Palace, not far from the main road. Connection to the rectory ....

In 1412, the stream was known as "Gryna" and later as "Grünau." It got its name from the originally abundant occurrence of freshwater pearl mussels. A legend about the name change relates to a pearl discovery. Between 1733 and 1952, officially appointed "pearl inspectors" based in the "Perlenhaus" fished for mussels and searched for pearls.[3] This was initially a margravial and later a royal Bavarian privilege. Today, the pearl mussel is almost extinct there as well.
