history

In a boundary description from 1585, properties are named that are required for the construction of the “new hammer”; but as early as 1596 it was said that “the new hammer has died again”. According to a report on the hammer and mining industry in the Upper Palatinate, it says: “An iron or chimney hammer, inaccessible and wasted since the Mansfeld train in 1621, the hammers and house buildings (de) completely gone. The hammer belonged to Georg Willibald Kastner's heirs, who, however, have already forgiven the same because of the resulting church debts to Moßbach and " left " the same .

In 1866, Josef Piehler von der Pingermühle and his son-in-law Peter Bergler, farmer from the Spielhof , founded a glass grinding and polishing plant here . At first objections to the establishment of the plant were raised by neighbors, but these were rejected by the Royal District Court of Vohenstrauss ; The court, on the other hand, authorized Peter Bergler to set up a grinding and polishing plant with twelve water stands and a foreman by order of May 9, 1866, and the construction of a trench eight feet wide at the bottom and twelve feet wide on the embankment was used for drainage approved by the water of the Zottbach. In the year it was built, the plant was leased to Georg Wild von Plößberg for twelve years ; the tenant had to pay a rent of 1 ¾ kreuzer for each cut glass pane in Jewish size. On February 16, 1880, the Berglerwerk was sold to Alois Kupfer von Frankenreuth , and from 1911 the factory was owned by Bayerische Spiegelglas AG in Fürth. Since January 25, 1941, Max Müllner from Pleystein was the local owner. In the sales contract, he was stipulated that he was no longer allowed to grind or polish glass. The water wheels were dismantled and instead a turbine was installed to generate electricity; From July 20, 1942, the supply of electricity to OBAG began.

During the Second World War , the former polishing room was confiscated by the German Navy to store textiles, submarine valves and rubber sheets. From 1943 to 1945, locomotive parts from RAW Weiden were stored in the grinding room. Between 1948 and 1961, all buildings were leased to the Karl Drabsch company, which set up a clothing factory here; later ceramics and furniture were also made here. On August 13, 1959, a contract was signed with the "Association of Friends of the 6th High School Berlin-Neukölln" and the conversion into a school camp was initiated.

Today there are a number of industrial companies in the Berglerschleife that tie in with the history of the place (e.g. Mirrotech Glas & Spiegel GmbH, Kochendörfer Wasserkraftanlagen Turbinen-Maschinenbau eK).
