history

The Mühlenberger Chapel

Mühlenberg used to be an independent municipality and is now a place within the meaning of the Lower Saxony Municipal Constitutional Law, which however has no local council, but only a local chief. In 1783 the place was founded as the location of a glassworks . 24 people worked in the buildings and mainly produced "white table and medication glasses" . They settled there and in 1863 the population was already 93 and the place had a school. Since the glassworks was no longer operated due to a lack of wood, the spinning mill, forest work and cattle breeding were the sources of income.

On January 1, 1973, Mühlenberg was incorporated into the district town of Holzminden.
