Hermannsmühle (Bardenitz)
The Hermannsmühle is a listed mill in Bardenitz , a district of the town of Treuenbrietzen in the Potsdam-Mittelmark district in the state of Brandenburg .
location
The mill is in the southern part of the town outside the historical core. Landstrasse 812 leads from the north in a southerly direction out of the village and provides a connection to Bundesstrasse 102. Shortly before leaving the village, Treuenbrietzener Strasse branches off to the west. A few meters after the junction, the street Zur Hermannsmühle leads in a south-westerly direction to the building of the same name. The transition from the Glogau-Baruther glacial valley to the higher-lying Fläming is natural here . From this, numerous springs emerge to the surface, which collect in the Pommerenkenteich and flow off as a Bardenitzer Fließ in a northerly direction.
history
According to tradition, there must have been a copper mill in Bardenitz at the beginning of the 18th century . In a document the paper miller Martin Glaucke from Saxony applies for the construction of a paper mill above the mentioned grinding mill. However, Glaucke was not able to build the mill himself, but instead ceded the concession to the papermaker Johann Christian Gregor from Schlalach on May 19, 1724 . He had a house built in the first half of the 18th century; Create the pond in 1725. The building was supplemented by a drying shed , which, according to the Brandenburg State Office for Monument Preservation and State Archaeological Museum (BLDAM), was built between 1725 and 1800. Around 1800 a servants' house and a toilet block were added. In 1852 the watercourse of the pond was changed to the shape it still had in the 21st century. In 1859 the master miller Christlieb Hermann from Hennickendorf bought the ensemble. He had the old mill building torn down and a new one built in 1860 to grind grain there from now on. The existing building, in which Gregor had previously cooked clay, became a residential building. At a later date, the Pommerenke family took over the property. Between 1850 and 1860 the so-called Jägerhaus was built north of the house. Two stables were added around 1900. In the time of the GDR , LPG Bardenitz used the property, crushed grain there and produced feed mixes. In 1984 an interior designer bought the mill and converted it into a residential building with holiday apartments by 1990. In 2012 the hydroelectric power station at the mill was renewed; it has been generating electricity since then.
