history
According to the protocol for the Strunderbach from 1773, the hammer mill was driven by an overshot water wheel. The name hammer mill suggests that the mill wheel temporarily drove a forge hammer. In lifting book of treasure messenger for Honschaft Gladbach from 1758/59 is mentioned as a tenant Jacob Hammer Scheid.
After 1823 it is noted in the trade tax register of the mayor's office of Gladbach that the hammer mill belonged to the Landwehr heirs and that the trade was oil and barley pounding miller . The equipment consisted only of an undershot bike . In 1839 the hammer mill went to the widow Lückerath and from her in 1851 to Friedrich Hölzer, who, however, had already leased it beforehand. He converted the hammer mill into a fruit mill with two grinders and one pearl barley, as well as two oil presses with three to five pound holes. On November 19, 1877, the steam boiler he had now installed was checked. A complaint was made that the marking for the lowest water level was missing. Hölzer used the steam engine to drive the fruit mill and a wood cutting mill.
He was followed in around 1880 by Hubert Peter Kerin, who owned a grinding and cutting mill here, which he used to drive the steam boiler mentioned above. He had meanwhile given up the previous mill operation. No information is available on the following operating activities. In the address book of 1939, a laundry is mentioned in the Hammermühle house, which operated there until the 1980s. The outbuildings were used for residential purposes. In April 1998 the main building that was last standing was so dilapidated that it had to be demolished.
