Neunbronn is a mill property in the Sulzdorf district of the district town of Schwäbisch Hall in the district of the same name in northeastern Baden-Württemberg .

geography

Neunbronn is located about nine kilometers east of the city center of Hall and two and a half kilometers northeast of the center of Sulzdorf at the foot of a valley spur called Fichtenberg in a northeast loop of the lower Bühler , which flows here in deeply cut shell limestone valley. It comprises two houses and a few outbuildings in a rather narrow floodplain and is accessed by a steep valley trail that follows the spur from Hohenstadt . Opposite the Binsenwiesenbach flows out of a small ridge through which a footpath climbs up the other Bühlertal side towards Kerleweck after crossing the river over a wooden footbridge.

A little up the valley of the property lies the 0.8 hectare silting lake of Neunbronn , from which a canal leads to the mill, and which is fed not only by the Bühler but also by a number of springs that now mostly emerge under the sea, which pour heavily and seasonally quite constantly . A dyeing test has shown that they are at least partially fed by an infiltration of an indirect right inflow of the Jagst ( Weidenbach north-west of Wallhausen ), which is over 15 kilometers away. The water that emerges here again after a chasm of two weeks or more must have crossed the Jagst underground.

history

Neunbronn is first recorded for the year 1078, when Adelbert von Bielriet donated it to the Comburg monastery . The name is probably owed to the nine springs, almost all of which are now flooded by the reservoir and which may have suggested the construction of the mill - because of the wintertime fill, it was still possible to grind here when the river itself was frozen. There used to be a castle on both sides of the valley, on the spur to the left near Hohenstadt the Hohenstein Castle and on the right opposite the Hohenstatt Castle (!) A little deeper on the almost eroded Umlaufberg of an older Bühler loop that once extended further northeast and through its downward loop section today the Binsenwiesenbach flows. From the Hohenstein castle ruins, the neck ditch, which was carved several meters into the rock, is well preserved, as is the castle hill, while only heaps of rubble are left of Hohenstatt Castle.

The Neunbronner Mühle was the first in the nearby region to generate electricity. It was put back into operation in the 1980s by the green local politician and inventor Georg Anton Lang (1951–2016).
