Schiffmühle (also Luntzenmühle , Art Mill Luntz ) is a wasteland in the Untereisenheim district in the Lower Franconian district of Würzburg . There is another mill of the same name in the municipality of Eisenheim, but it is not a district.
Geographical location
The ship mill is located in the south of the Eisenheim municipality on a tributary of the Main . To the north, connected to the mill by the WÜ 4 district road, is Untereisenheim. Separated by the Main is the Volkach district of Fahr in the Kitzingen district in the east . The Volkacher Mainschleife begins to the south with the Mainhang nature reserve at the Vogelsburg . In the southwest lies Kaltenhausen , in the west, some distance away, is the Prosselsheim district of Püssensheim .
history
The history of the mill is closely linked to the Beginenklause on the Volkacher Kirchberg . It probably existed since the 14th century and was assigned to the community that had settled near the town of Volkach. After the dissolution of the community in 1422, the ship mill came into the hands of private operators, perhaps it was subordinated to the village rule over Untereisenheim, the Hochstift Würzburg .
Johannes Luntz bought the mill around 1850. At that time the Main was not yet straightened and the mill with its undershot wheel was exactly opposite Fahr am Main. Konrad Luntz, son of Johannes, died in 1884 of blood poisoning as the owner of the mill . He had started to renovate the facility and wanted to convert the ship mill into an art mill . At least he had managed to install a diesel engine.
His son Ernst Luntz died in 1919 after an engine explosion ripped off both of his legs. The mill was initially leased for ten years . Ferdinand Luntz then ran the ship mill from 1930. However, after the Second World War, the competition between the industrial mills became too great, so Ferdinand Luntz was relieved of the state in 1973 and the mill was shut down. The Luntz family still owns the mill buildings.
