history
The hammer mill located at the Küchenwoog (also called Bärenmüllersweiher) was built in 1748 by Captain Schwarz as a hammer mill. Schwarz, who also operated the sheet hammer near Kaiserslautern , applied for the establishment of an "Eisen-Hammerschmidt smelting works" on September 24, 1748 with the Counts of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg in Neuhemsbach. This permit was granted with an annual long lease of 30 florins . The construction costs overwhelmed Schwarz, so that Count Ludwig Ferdinand von Sayn-Wittgenstein took on a guarantee for 1,800 florins in 1750 and he was granted all rights to the hammer as security. In the years that followed, Schwarz was constantly in arrears and disappeared without a trace in the summer of 1758 without having paid his debts. He returned in early 1759, after presumably his son had bought the hammer back. Even after that, the hammer mill's financial situation did not improve, in 1790 the sayn-wittgenstein-berleburg law firm noted that it was "[with] Capitän Schwartz [...] the old story".
Between 1790 and 1800 the hammer mill was acquired by a citizen of the common. In 1797 the annual production amounted to 36,000 pounds of bar iron , which was made exclusively from scrap iron and sold in the surrounding area. The company had economic success under common, in a statistic by Ludwig Gienanth from 1801 an annual surplus of 1005 florins is given. In 1819 at the latest, the Neuhemsbach hammer was stopped.
The mill was subsequently converted into a board and grinding mill . In 1859 Johann Eichelberger was named as the owner, followed by Peter Müller in 1902. At this point in time, the mill had already ceased.
