The Bubenrothermühle is a hamlet belonging to the Dollnstein market in the Altmühltal in the Upper Bavarian district of Eichstätt in the Altmühltal Nature Park .

location

The Bubenrothermühle is located on the right edge of the Altmühl valley between Dollnstein and Breitenfurt on the state road 2230 at 396 meters above sea level .

Place name interpretation

The place name should contain the words "buwo" for farmer and "riot" for swampy, reed-covered ground. Another interpretation sees a clearing name in the place name, combined with the personal name Bubo / Pubo.

history

Bubenroth or Bubenrothermühle is first mentioned in 1239 as "Pubenrade", namely as a property of the Augustinian Canons Rebdorf . Presumably the mill was built from a noble residence in Dollnstein. In 1305 "Rode" came to the bishop of Eichstätt in the dispute over the Hirschberg inheritance after the death of the last Hirschberg count Gebhard VII. An iron hammer was operated here at the latest since the 15th century ; Johann II von Heideck, who was sitting at Dollnstein Castle, issued a letter of inheritance to a certain Peter Weißenhaar for Eisenhammer in 1417.

For 1799, Johann Kaspar Bundschuh speaks of a "considerable grinding and sawmill" that belonged to the prince-bishop's care and caste office Dollnstein. In addition, it says: "One of the most beautiful marbles in the whole principality breaks in the nearby mountains, it is unevenly high and speckled pale yellow, also often dendritic , the most beautiful type of it is the greenish-gray with large yellowish-white spots."

After the secularization of the Eichstätt Monastery, the Bubenrothermühle belonged to the Electorate of Bavaria from 1802 and to the rule of Archduke Ferdinand III from 1803 . , Grand Duke of Tuscany and Elector of Salzburg, and from 1806 to the new Kingdom of Bavaria and from 1808 to the tax district of Obereichstätt . Since the parish edict of 1818 it was part of the parish of Breitenfurt . The census in the Kingdom of Bavaria on December 1, 1875 resulted in eleven residents, seven buildings, four horses and 23 head of cattle for the mill. The census of December 1, 1900 yielded twelve residents in two residential buildings.

Around 1900 a gypsum mill was in operation opposite the grain mill. The plaster of paris was used as a fertilizer. In 1924 the gypsum mill was demolished and a residential building was built in its place. In the course of the Altmühl regulation, then known as the "Altmühl correction", the river was straightened around 1928 and the Altmühl weir was built at the mill. On April 30, 1945, the then miller Johann Schuster was shot from behind by a military wolf unit. In 1946, a total of ten displaced persons were housed in a makeshift home and in the home of the Müller family. On October 27, 1958, a fire broke out in the Bubenrothermühle; the sawmill fell victim to the flames, but the old mill was saved. Until February 1959, the mill supplied the town of Breitenfurt with electricity ; the hydroelectric power generation plant was built in 1921. The grinding operation, leased since 1943, existed until 1960; however, the sawmill was operated by the Schuster family until it was sold in 1990. It still exists in other hands today.

Together with the municipality of Breitenfurt, the mill came to the Dollnstein market in the course of the regional reform on January 1, 1972. In 1992, Theo Schuster, the last Bubenrother Müller, died.

In 2015, the Altmühl was renatured by the Ingolstadt Water Management Office on an area of ​​one hectare near the Bubenrothermühle, thus expanding the Altmühlaue.

legend

A legend tells of little men, no bigger than “boys”, who lived in a cave near the Burgstein rock and secretly helped the distressed miller at night. When they were given new clothes by the miller for their troubles, they disappeared forever.

Path chapel by the mill

chapel

There is a chapel near the mill in the direction of Dollnstein between the state road 2230 and the Ingolstadt-Treuchtlingen railway line . It has been colored in and shows a representation of Our Lady floating above the rock formation of the Burgstein rock.

Burgstein rocks

Northwest of the mill and beyond the Altmühl, a rock formation was carved out by the Ice Age Urdonau at a talknick, of which the picturesque, 45-50 meter high Burgstein rock - the name is reminiscent of a castle Hirschstein mentioned in 1360, which was later abandoned, which stood between Dollnstein and Breitenfurt - represents a nationally known climbing rock. While the Altmühltal cycle path used to pass directly below the Burgstein rock, it has now been relocated further down into the valley floor to avoid danger.

List of geotopes in the Eichstätt district

Another rock that is valued by climbers is the so-called Bubenrother Tower above the mill in the wooded valley slope, known by the locals as the "Mühlfelsen".

economy

A sawmill specializing in the processing of larch trees and a joinery are operated on the mill site.
