Place name interpretation

The place name indicates that rags for making paper were processed (ground) here. In contrast to the lower paper mill, the mill was given the addition "Upper" because it is higher up on the Schambach (to the origin).

history

The two paper mills in Schambach, the Upper and the Lower Paper Mill , were considered "good" in the 18th century. The age of the upper mill is uncertain; it could be under a different name in the 13th / 14th Century. 1666 appears in the parish registers of Dietfurt an der Altmühl - Schambach and its mills belonged to this Protestant parish - a "head miller". The mill belonged to the Pappenheim lordship ; Hans Christoff Preu is attested in 1680 as a subject of the mill from cardboard. Since a paper mill needed an average of 500 quintals of rags for processing each year, these mills were dependent on appropriate supplies from rag dealers. In particular, the cross-border rag trade was repeatedly complained about and the rag export was restricted by ordinances. For example, one complained in the area of ​​the Monheim Regional Court about rag deliveries to the paper mill on the Schambach. The rag dealer of the paper mills on the Schambach around the 17th and 18th centuries was the Jew Schimmel , who lived in Möhren until 1707 .

Between 1749 and 1786 the Huguenot Jacob Christoph Quinat, expelled from France, owned the Lower Paper Mill, where he rebuilt a stately mill and manufacturing building; In 1770 he came into the possession of the "Obermühle", which he also used for paper production. He gave his paper the watermark "IC Q", his initials.

Since 1806, the new Kingdom of Bavaria , the mill was the tax district Dietfurt in the lower court Pappenheim of the Retirement Office Greding of the Retirement Office, 1815 (later district office, then county) White Castle assigned; the patrimonial patrimonial jurisdiction was repealed in 1848. With the municipal edict of 1818, the tax district was transformed into the municipality of Schambach, which was incorporated into Treuchtlingen on July 1, 1971 as part of the regional reform in Bavaria .

In 1811 the Quinati Mill changed hands due to bankruptcy; For the auction it was announced that the mill “was highly recommended because of its pure spring water and in every other respect.” Around 1820, the subsequent owner gave up paper production at the mill. In the middle of 1826 the mill property was auctioned off as the property of the "paper manufacturer Georg Paul Wilke"; it consisted of "a large factory and residential building, barn, stables and courtyard," two gardens, several acres of fields and meadows and 1 acre of wood. In 1900 the grinding operations of the subsequent owners also ended, while the saw worked until 1960. Today the former mill is the seat of a transport company founded in 1948.

The former mill house, a two-storey saddle roof building with an extension of the same design with a lower ridge height, is marked 1833. An outbuilding, a ground-floor gable roof building, is marked 1788. The buildings are considered a monument.
