The Horstmühle is a residential area in the Schöbendorf district of the city of Baruth / Mark in the Teltow-Fläming district in Brandenburg .

location

Schöbendorf is west of the city center; the living space at the far western end of the district. It borders on Lynow in the south and on Schönefeld in the west ; both districts of the Nuthe-Urstromtal community . To the north is the Baruther district of Horstwalde and the further district of Paplitz to the east. To the west of the residential area, the Lynow dam flows in a south-north direction past the residential area. To the south lies the Horstgraben Horstwalde in a west-east direction . In terms of its natural surroundings, the living space is one of the Flemming meadows in the Baruther glacial valley .

history

The living space first appeared in the Schmettauschen map series in 1778 and 1786 with a water mill that belonged to the Baruth estate . In 1861 the name Horstmühle first appeared. In the second half of the 18th century a main building was built, which was equipped with several tiled stoves around 1850. Various doors and banisters were changed in the early 20th century. Around 1900 a farm building and an ice cellar were added. The living space came to Lynow in 1929. The property was used until the 1980s and has been falling into disrepair since then.

The mill building no longer exists in the 21st century. The main house, a farm building and an ice cellar are under monument protection. A development association has been campaigning for the preservation since 2007 and opens the building to the ensemble on selected days, for example on the day of the open monument . Further renovation was hampered by legal disputes between the Princely Family Solms-Baruth and the city.

main building

The main building is a two-storey building made of timber framing. The double-locked compartment was made of wood, the infilling in the outside area with the help of masonry bricks , in the inside area with clay. The result was a seven-axis structure, which can be entered from the south via a centrally mounted, rectangular door. In the lateral axes there are six large, high-angle windows on the ground floor and seven smaller windows on the floor above. Two residential units per floor were created in the building, which could be reached through a central entrance hallway and a spiral staircase. Each residential unit consisted of two rooms and a kitchen with a chamber. In the rooms there are tiled stoves from the middle of the 19th century, which are worked in the style of late classicism . On the east side there is only a small opening in the gable , while on the north side there is another door and three, and on the upper floor another four windows. The main building has a half- hip roof that is covered with beaver tail .

Outbuildings and ice cellar

Outbuildings

To the east of the main house is a single-storey farm building which used to be stables. It is based on a base made of uncut and not layered field stones and was also made of masonry bricks. In the building there are circumferential, rectangular openings in the upper third of the wall. To the south is a gable with gable framework, behind which there is a gate. The outbuilding has a gable roof with beaver tail covering. In the northeast there is an extension with a pent roof that serves as a toilet . Between the two buildings is a "mill grill" that was built by members of the friends' association.

To the southeast of the adjoining building is an ice cellar with two chambers that were built from brick. The originally existing door was removed and replaced by entry slots. Bats live behind it , and the ice cellar serves as their quarters.
