history
Obuchshöfchen was first mentioned as a good in 1720. It was founded by the city treasurer Matthias Obuch , who was also an organ builder. The leasehold was in the town of Mohrungen in the East Prussian Oberland and had 9 hooves.
In 1826 or soon afterwards, a shooting range for the Mohrunger Schützengilde was set up in the Oberwald. This still exists today with an associated club.
