history

In 1234, King Heinrich VII gave the German Order Commander Nuremberg a . a. the two willow mills. In 1431 the Coming sold the willow mills to the imperial city of Nuremberg . In the large willow mill on the north bank of the river (also called “Weidenmühle in der Sebalder Pfarr”), four grain wheels and a wire pulley were operated from 1439 (hence the name “wire drawing mill”), and later on, hammer mills were always maintained alongside the grinding mills. In 1515 the Imhoff patrician family bought the Großweidenmühle, which is why it was referred to as the "Imhoffsche Weidenmühle" from then on. From 1700 a water wheel drove the willow mill pumping station, which supplied the baroque gardens in St. Johannis with water.

Towards the end of the 18th century there were 8 households in Großweidenmühle (1 grinding mill with 2 houses, 1  Zainhammer with 4 houses, 1  copper hammer with 2 houses). The high court exercised the imperial city of Nuremberg, but this was disputed by the Brandenburg-Bayreuth Oberamt Baiersdorf . The basic rule had the Imhoff'sche of Familienfideikommiss and the Nuremberg own men of Ebner and of Holzschuher held together.

As part of the community edict, Großweidenmühle was assigned to the St. Johannis tax district formed in 1808 . It also belonged to the municipality of St. Johannis, founded in 1810. From 1824 to 1848, the entire place was subject to the patrimonial brick court in voluntary jurisdiction . In 1825 Großweidenmühle was incorporated into Nuremberg .

In the 19th century the mill complex was divided into three parts: In the front “Leykaufschen Eisenhammer” (Großweidenmühlstrasse 1, 3) the Lyra pencil factory moved in in 1856 , the “Engelhardtschen Hammer” (house no. 9, 11) became the “Fehnschen Kunstmühle” (lower Mill) rebuilt. The grinding mill (house no. 5), known as the “Vordere Mühle” or “Haberstumpfmühle” from 1856, was in operation as such until the 20th century. Only the Fehnsche Kunstmühle survived the Second World War unscathed. Mills were only stopped here in 1967.
