The beginnings of the place go back to a glassworks. On July 28, 1721, the master glassmaker August Guthmann received permission from Count Karl Ludwig von Nassau-Saarbrücken to build a glassworks and to settle eight families. Guthmann (around 1724–1728) was followed by master glassmakers Eberhard, Wenzel and Wenzel (1729–1748). After the glassworks had ceased operations at the end of 1747, Chamber Councilor Röchling suggested using the site to create a farm for rearing cattle and pigs. The proposal was carried out in 1748 and a farm (the later Rußhütter Hof) was laid out and leased to the merchant Gouvy (1748–1757). Finally, in 1757, the Princely Chamber Councilor Georg Philipp Heuss built a soot hut, which was expanded in 1759 to include a factory for the production of pitch, resin, oil, spirit and car grease.
