Heidemühle Zschernick
The Heidemühle Zschernick was a water mill , which was about 6.5 km south of Annaburg , in the Annaburg Heath on the Neugraben .
history
A water and cutting mill was built in Zschernick for the first time in 1619 . On May 19, 1702, the electoral chamber property was transferred to Tobias Schlobach, who was the owner of Pechhütten at the time, with all ... “Accessories and accessories, the full inventory, and otherwise with all uses, rights, justice and freedoms, in particular the services that we thought of our subjects in office connected to such a mill, the same hatching and meadow wax, like everything the previous millers always had, bought hereditary for 450 guilders and 30 guilders annual hereditary interest. ” Before that, the property was leased. The first master miller and also the mill owner was Johann Friedrich Schlobach in 1723. After his death, the eldest son of the Johann Christian Schlobach family took over the Heidemühle. However, since he died at the age of 44, his wife had to continue the milling business from December 30, 1771. His son, Johann Christoph Schlobach, who was born on January 5, 1757, then took over his parents' mill in 1783. In an accident, however, he died at the age of only 40 on February 16, 1797. As a result, his wife also had to continue the business. Her son, Christian Friedrich Schlobach, who was born on July 8, 1786, took over the mill after his apprenticeship and master craftsman examination. He died at the age of 51 on November 20, 1837. Until his son, Christian Friedrich Schlobach junior, was able to take over the business as a trained master miller (he was 19 at the time), his mother ran the milling business here too until 1850 further. His son, Christian Friedrich Hermann Schlobach, also learned the miller's trade and took over the mill after his father's death. Due to the deteriorating business situation and the consequent losses in business, the property was sold to the forestry treasury in 1898.
Others
Shortly after the property was sold, the mill was demolished at the beginning of the 20th century. The place continued to exist until 1959. A forester's house and the settlement known as the Zschernick colony later housed, among other things, war resettlers from the Second World War . With the beginning of the military use of the Annaburg Heath, the population was resettled. The foundations, wells and boundary stones that can still be seen today, as well as the mill ditch branching off from the new ditch and the backwater , which were used to drive the mill, serve as evidence of the mill and the settlement of the place .
