history

The Markgröninger Bruckmühle was first mentioned historically as "Muln an der Brücken" in 1424. It originally had four water wheels that were fed by a 695 meter long canal branched off to the left of the Glems. In 1750, the then owner Daniel Mayer was put on record because he had disregarded the mill and miller regulations issued by Duke Eberhard Ludwig von Württemberg in 1729 . The town's peasants had accused him, like his three competitors, of unfair business conduct.

In 1906 the Bruckmühle belonged to August Sax and had two overshot water wheels . They had a diameter of 2.95 m or 3 m and a width of 1.60 m or 1.88 m and delivered a raw power of 14 hp at 300 l / s water flow. At the beginning of the 20th century, Lina Sax replaced the water wheels with a Francis turbine. In 1937, an electric motor with 10 hp was added to support hydropower. The mill operation was stopped in 1956 by Fritz Eugen Sax.

Today the mill building is used as a residential building. There is nothing left of the former mill equipment.
