history

The Rennermühle was first mentioned in a document in 1554. The occasion was the acquisition of the mill by the city of Eger for Gut Albrechtsreuth (= Neualbenreuth). Like the Platzermühle, the Rennermühle was an " Egerisches " property in the sense of the Frais .

The name of the mill can be justified by Leonhard Renner, who owned today's properties 2 and 3 for the use of water power around 1600. In addition to the grinding mill with two grinding stages, a sawmill was also operated, which is still in operation today. In 1877 the sawmill was renovated under the direction of Johann Alois Heindl. The building is still in normal use today, supplemented by various additions, the renewal of the water wheel around 1979 and a modern full gate. Logs can be cut up to 56 cm in diameter and 11 m in length.
