history

The place Blechmühle (formerly Hammermühle ) has been documented since 1300. Here, as the name Blechhammer suggests, the semi-finished sheet metal was manufactured.

In the hammer letter from 1438 a Niklas Schmucker is named as the owner , who handed over the hammer property to his son Michael Schmucker . In the hammer letter, the hammer gentleman is also awarded the lower jurisdiction over his hammer people .

In 1607 a Michael Schwindl was named at the Plechmühl . He sued the forester from Eschenbach because he did not want to provide him with the wood he needed to run the plant free of charge, although this was allowed to him according to the hammer letter. The dispute goes back to the fact that at that time the work was only a mill and not a hammer, which is why the forester's refusal was also recognized in court. 1640, the Thumbacher citizen has Hanns Thomas Mendl the " anno 1634 spent by the enemy nations ödliegende and devastated Plechmühl venal he tried to purchase ", which has also been granted to him. However, in 1641 the soldiers came back and again devastated the place. In 1643, a Thumbach citizen named Mertz offered to build an apartment and a grinding aisle and to cultivate the fields again so that the debts of the Mendl that burdened the business could be paid off in the event of a sale . This was granted to him on September 23, 1644. Metz shared the property with a swimmer and both set up and operated the mill with two grinding aisles, barn and stables. Around 1700 Hans Schuller von Eschenbach married the Metz part. However, disputes over the division of operations arose, which continued into the next generation. When he died, Hans Schuller bequeathed half of his property to his son Lorenz and half to his stepson Hans Baier . Lorenz was to pay off the latter ; on February 13, 1733 the share went to Lorenz Schuller . However, the legal disputes with Schwemmer's heirs came to light again, as Schwemmer had sued in 1729 that “ a main property or corpus would be unlawfully separated and separated ”. In 1739 Lorenz Schuller was therefore ordered by the Eschenbach maintenance office to leave the mill. For reasons not known, things turned out differently. The local mill on the Thumbach has been owned by the Schuller family since 1698 . The former hammer mill - as shown - was lost in the Thirty Years' War .

In 1828 a new grinding mill was built here. Today the plant works with a water turbine and produces rye and white flour. Some of it is processed in-house, the Schuller bakery.
