history
The Oedmühle was first mentioned in 1368 in the Salbüchlein Karl IV. As "Oedmühle with fish water, a fiefdom owned by Lienhart Lichtensteiner". It is a listed building .
The mill had various uses over the centuries, depending on market demand, and was a flour mill, flax mill, paint mill or hammer mill. It was operated with the water of the Etzelbach .
In 1729 linseed oil was cut in the Oedmühle owned by the miller Jakob Pückel , and in 1800 the Oedmühle served as a glass ribbon . Around 1820 the mill was converted into a hammer mill and the building was enlarged. It was then equipped with three overshot water wheels . On the occasion of the leasing of the glass ribbon to H. Rosenhaupt from Fürth , a plan was drawn up. At this point the mill consisted of a flour and an oil mill. In the outbuilding there was a glass polishing pass and a glass loop. The outbuilding was converted into a bronze and brocade factory by the Fürth paint manufacturer .
In 1888 the Vogt & Knorr company, based in Fürth, acquired the entire property. The property, which was previously used in a typical mixed form with living, working, handicrafts and agriculture, has now been converted into a factory as a bronze hammer.
The Oedmühle was acquired in 1929 by Johann Wolfgang Arold, businessman and mill machine factory owner from Nuremberg . He replaced the two-meter-wide iron water wheel with a more powerful Francis turbine in order to operate an art mill in the five-story building . A dining room was built into the building on the ground floor and the hop floors on the second and third floors, which had been vacant for 50 years, were converted into guest rooms.
In the late 1960s, wage milling ceased.
From 2000 to 2002 the Oedmühle was renovated in close cooperation with the Bavarian State Office for Monument Preservation . Since then, the mill has served as a residential and seminar house.
In 2013, the Oedmühle was awarded the “Bavarian Monument Protection Medal ” for its renovation in line with historic monuments.
