history

The Nessenmühle was built as a single farmstead by the end of the 17th century at the latest . To its function as a water mill to meet 200 meters was west-southwest of it a Mühlweiher created that about eight meters was above the height level of the mill and was powered by a small unnamed stream.

As a result of the administrative reforms carried out in the Kingdom of Bavaria at the beginning of the 19th century , the former wasteland became part of the independent rural community of Schönberg with the second municipal edict . In the course of the 19th and 20th centuries, several houses were built immediately to the west and south of the mill building, so that the place eventually grew into a hamlet. In 1964 it had 15 residents. Together with the community of Schönberg, Nessenmühle was incorporated into the city of Lauf in 1972 in the course of the first phase of the municipal territorial reform in Bavaria carried out in the 1970s .

The mill operation in the Nessenmühle has been abandoned for a long time and the mill pond has now been drained. The former pond area is now forested, it is located in the middle of the Moritzberg workshops and only the field name Beim Mühlweiher still reminds of this disappeared body of water. The stream that once fed the pond, on the other hand, was diverted and now flows into the Nessenbach about 200 meters south of the village .

traffic

Nessenmühle is connected to the public road network by a municipal road that, coming from Schönberg, leads northwards past the western edge of the hamlet.
