Stocklacher mill

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Stocklacher Mühle (or Stockelacher Mühle ) was a water mill on the southern edge of the district of Kleinenglis , a current district of Borken in the north Hessian Schwalm-Eder district . It was demolished in 1977 to make way for an open - cast lignite mine in the Borken lignite area .

location

The mill was located at an altitude of 180  m on the north bank of the Schwalm west of Borken, about 80 m east of today's Stockelache bathing lake .

As the level map of the Electorate of Hesse from 1840 to 1861 shows, a weir built south of the southeast corner of today's Stockelache into the Schwalm channeled water into a short mill ditch that ran roughly parallel to the course of the river to the north-east , which fed the mill and returned to it soon after the river flowed, where it turned in a sharp right turn to the south.

history

The mill was first mentioned in 1578 as "Newen Moln (New Mill) uff der Schwalm under Kerstenhausen" in the Salbuch of the Landgrave's Borken office , when Hans Scholfbach's heirs from Arnsbach had to pay interest to the Landgrave of Hesse-Kassel . In 1677, on the occasion of a baptism by Schlagmüller Pauly Nette, it appears as “Stockelachs Mühle” in the Kleinenglis church book . The mill remained in the possession of the Nette family for several generations, and in 1774 the miller Johannes Nette paid two Florin Meier interest to the landgrave's rent office in Borken. He had no son, and so his son-in-law, the oil miller Hermann Lauterbach from Kleinenglis, succeeded him. The miller's son Johann Adam Schminke from Wehren married Lauterbach's daughter in 1829 and took over the mill. He and his descendants mainly used them to grind oil fruits . It is not known when the change from hammer mill to stone mill took place; it may already have been carried out by Hermann Lauterbach.

In 1912, August Schminke had a new mill building with an adjoining house built, but at the end of the 1930s his son of the same name stopped producing oil and concentrated on his agriculture . His grandson Karl makeup overwrote the mill, the farm and the surrounding agricultural land in 1976 to the Preussen Elektra that there a lignite - opencast opened while a furnished him by the Preussen Elektra farm in Altenbücken relocated. The mill buildings were demolished in 1977.
