The Hammergut Waltenrieth was located in the district of the same name , which is now part of the Moosbach market in the Upper Palatinate district of Neustadt an der Waldnaab . The plant has been powered by the water power of the Tröbesbach since the 13th century . The existing hammer house is a mansard roof from the 18th century and is now a listed building in Waltenrieth (house no. 1).

history

In 1283 the hammer mill was first mentioned as Walpretsriut . Waltenrieth can be seen as a clearing settlement . In 1318 Duke Ludwig pledged the deserted place to Konrad von Paulsdorf ; he rebuilds the work and so it also appears in 1387 in the directory of the Upper Palatinate hammer cleaning company . On September 1, 1452, Count Palatine Otto issued Ulrich Steinlinger with a hammer letter about Waltenrieth, who had bought the hammer from Eberhard Wernsteiner. The next owners are Veit Muchendorfer (around 1500) and then the Vischer family (1505). In 1516 the hammer is referred to as öd.

At the beginning of the 16th century two hammer mills are mentioned, namely the Schienhammer Oberwaltenrieth and the ironworking hammer Unterwaltenrieth . In 1548 Hans Schäfeer sold the Hammer Oberwaltenrieth to Peter Zoltsch, who already owned the Hammer Unterwaltenrieth. In 1560 Georg Zoltsch was named the owner of both hammers. Two years later, the factories are labeled as wasted, but by 1566 they were back in operation. In 1588 Bernhard Prentel became hammer master in Oberwaltenrieth, a Georg Prentel is called Unterwaltenrieth on the hammer. On January 26, 1597, Elector Friedrich awarded him a coat of arms (shield in two parts, upper field silver, lower two smoking fires on three green mountains, from the crest a growing arm wielding a hammer). In 1606 Georg Prentel had taken both hammers. Since he did not want to participate in the change of religion to Calvinism , he had to emigrate to Frankenmarkt . He sold his property to Elias Seibolder. In 1610 a Martin Lembler was a hammer master in Oberwaltenrieth, also in 1623. From 1603 to 1606 Waltenrieth obtained nine pounds of mountain fudge and five shillings (that is 24,500 quintals) of ore from the city of Amberg lay. Hammer Waltenrieth belonged to the parish of Etzgersrieth in the 16th century and was subject to tax there, later the taxes were paid to the parish of Moosbach and the Probstei Böhmischbruck.

Coat of arms of the Prentels

About the hammer Unter- and Obernwaltenrieth it says: “A slicer and tin hammer, impassable and since the Mansfeld war de anno 1621 desolate; Also, the hammers and the house building (de) are completely gone from the lower hammer, and the house stands alone on the upper hammer, so that the fields and 'Wyßmather' can be enjoyed. Both hammer by Hans Seb. from Stein's Wittib and heirs. With them (there are) no means to rebuild one or another hammer and get it going. "

The next owners are Hans Sebastian von Stein (1623), Josef Schrötl (1625) and Wolf von Wildenstein (1628). The latter did not want to become Catholic, so had to leave the country and join Danish and Swedish regiments. In 1629 his goods were confiscated and sold. Sebastian von Stein appears as the buyer of the Ödungen. In 1688 the goods were owned by Georg Adam von Stein. In 1709 Johann Wilhelm von Stein is named here with his wife Juliana and a son Mathias. In 1729 Georg Wilhelm von Stein and his wife Susanna Beatrice, daughter of the Imperial and Royal Rittmeister Bernhard Wirbel de Barra, are named. Their daughter Maria Anna Franziska married Johann Adam Hanauer on December 28, 1740. The hammer mills were not rebuilt in the 18th century.

The Hanauer family entered the glass grinding business . Simon Hanauer founded a mirror glass grinding and polishing plant in Waltenrieth in 1818. In 1843 Jakob Hanauer was named here as the owner of the property. In 1982 a Franz Gürtler is registered as the owner. In 1911 there was a Gürtler plant here, in 1982 Franz Gürtler is still mentioned.
