The Rengershausen mill is located near Lüxheim in the Düren district on Neffelbach .
The mill is located directly on the municipal boundary to Nörvenich and the municipal boundary to Eggersheim . It is first mentioned in 1502 as a grain mill on Neffelbach near Joester UB (Item 6 tomorrow to Rengershusen moelen. Item dye moelen zoe Rengershusen heyt yn unß gotzhuyss zeynden.). In 1803 the mill was bought from the French governorate. It had an undershot water wheel and employed two workers. The two grinding courses could only be used alternately. In 1820 a Siepen from Rengershausen was the owner and in 1830 Peter Macherey to Rengershausen. Milling plants no longer exist.
