Barthsmühle

The Barthsmühle is a former mill in Bad Rappenau in the Heilbronn district in northern Baden-Württemberg . It is one of the five historic mills in the Fünfmühlental . The mill property forms the Bartsmühle residential area belonging to Bad Rappenau , which, in contrast to the historically documented mill name , is written without an h .

location

The mill is located northeast of Bad Rappenau in the valley of the Mühlbach, cut deep into the terrain on the slope to the Neckar, on a 320-meter-long Mühlkanal that branches off to the right of the Mühlbach. Above the Barthsmühle, the ball mill is still on the plateau , down the valley is the summer mill .

history

At the mill there is a stone slab dated 1569, but its meaning is uncertain. The origin of the mill is certainly at least in the 16th century, as the mill was mentioned as a Haberkorn mill as early as 1596 . It was owned by the von Ehrenbergs , passed to the von Helmstatt family in 1658 and later privately owned by the Baron von Schade.

Georg Klauß from Bargen (1625), Veit Kilian (1641), Hans Oberthür (1656), Michael Wollhäuser (1876), Hans Jörg Höttinger (as successor to Wollhäuser), Stephan Rabolder (1697) are named as millers. Hans Jörg Wolff bought the mill for 750 guilders in 1698. After him, the Baptist Ulrich Hodtel from Bonfeld was the owner of the mill. In 1739 the mill had a concession for the southwestern towns of Treschklingen and Babstadt . In 1803 the Wimpfen master bricklayer Tobias Groß bought the mill for 6500 guilders. The name Barthsmühle comes from the miller family Barth, who owned the mill from 1811 to 1878 and installed a second grinder. The last miller's family was called Schneider, they stopped milling around 1920. In 1921 the property came into the possession of the then Zimmerhof municipality through a foreclosure auction , which initially rented it to a pensioner. In 1936 the mill was sold to private individuals as a residential building.
