The tube mill was a grain and cutting mill in today's Altenkunstadter district of Röhrig . It has completely disappeared without any visible remains.
history
The mill was first mentioned in a document when it was acquired by Langheim Abbey in 1180. The next time it was mentioned in a record from 1312 in the oldest Langheim land register from 1390. In Bamberg Bishop Urbar of 1323/1328 is narrated that the miller time each for Walburga -Feiertag, February 25, and Martini four shillings denarii and a half Sümer wheat, and on Shrove a hen had to give to the Langheimer abbots.
After a fire, the mill was rebuilt in 1729. In 1801 the property was described by the Bamberg mathematics professor and topographer Johann Baptist Roppel as a mill with four water wheels , including three grinding aisles and one cutting passage, as well as a house, barn and outbuildings. The fiefdom and Vogteirecht were under the monastery Langheim until 1803. The tax for the fishing water behind the mill had to be paid to Weismain .
In 1973 the mill burned down. In the mid-1970s, the remains were removed piece by piece. In 1977 the Altenkunstadter school and sports center was built on the former mill property. The mill was at the point where the asphalt path now leads west of the Kordigasthalle.
architecture
The art historian and monument conservator Tilmann Breuer described the mill in 1962 as a "two-story elongated building with a half-hipped roof ". The partially profiled and drilled door and window frames (especially on the ground floor) made of sandstone emerged from the then plastered facade . The door leaves of the large entrance door were from the 19th century and were decorated with carvings. The frames of the windows on the upper floor had a classicist decor. A wooden figure of St. Florian from 1729 was set into a niche on the upper floor framed with flowers. The outbuilding from the 18th century ended with a half-hipped mansard roof .
