history

The mill "of a man named Fox" also occurs in an older spelling as "Fuxmüll". Other historical names for the mill are Schermühle and Möhrmühle. In 1522 the nearby carrots passed to the noblemen Fuchs von Bimbach , who built the mill at the "Marbrunnen", a rich source stream that flows into the Möhrenbach. In 1600 it appears as "Fuchsmüll" in an atlas of the Palatinate-Neuburg regional court Graisbach - Monheim . In 1744 it was referred to in an Ansbach official description as "Möhringer Fuchß-Mühl". At the end of the Holy Roman Empire , the mill consisted of a property that was subordinate to the Brandenburg margravial (since 1791/92 Prussian) Fraischamt or, with regard to bailiwick and tax, to the margravial administrator's office in Treuchtlingen and belonged to the parish of Möhren.

In 1806 the mill with carrots came to the Kingdom of Bavaria, where it was assigned to the tax district (from 1818 rural community ) in the district court / rent office Graisbach-Monheim when the tax districts were formed in 1808 , which became part of the district office (from 1935 district) Donauwörth. In records from 1810 and 1841 the mill has the house number 24. In 1815, Carl Anton Graf von Fugger -Nordendorf formed a local court on the Rittermannlehen zu Möhren as a patrimonial second class, to which the wasteland of Fuchsmühle and her only family were subordinate; this jurisdiction was abolished in 1848 by Bavaria. In 1841 the mill was a "mill good with real mill justice, two grinding cycles and a saw."

Until the regional reform in Bavaria, the Fuchsmühle remained a district of the municipality of Möhren, with which it became one of 54 officially named municipal parts of Treuchtlingen in the Weißenburg i.Bay district on July 1, 1972. (since May 1, 1973 in the Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen district). She left the administrative region of Swabia and came to the administrative region of Middle Franconia.

In 1928, the mill's Jura spring was captured and connected to the Treuchtlingen water supply network. The grinding operation was given up after 1945. Since the mill does not have any agricultural land worth mentioning, the five properties (as of around 1984) are only used as living quarters.
