history

Both of Schambach's paper mills, the exact age of which is not known, were considered “good” in the 18th century. 1684 is the name of "under Müller" in Schambach Andreas Drießler. The Jew Schimmel, who lived in Möhren until 1707 , supplied the mill with the rags it needed; a paper mill needed an average of 500 quintals of rags to process each year. Between 1749 and 1786 the Huguenot Jacob Christoph Quinat, expelled from France, owned the paper mill. In 1764/65 he built the mill and manufacturing building, which still exists today, as a large, two-storey saddle roof building, on which he had a St. George's coat of arms with his initials attached. His paper, which he produced from 1770, was given the watermark "IC Q", his initials. At the end of the Holy Roman Empire , the lower paper mill (with walkway) belonged to the Pappenheim lordship , which also had high jurisdiction over the mill, and to the Protestant parish of Dietfurt .

Since 1806, the new Kingdom of Bavaria , the mill was the tax district Dietfurt in the lower court Pappenheim of the Retirement Office Greding of the Retirement Office, 1815 (later district office, then county) White Castle assigned; the patrimonial patrimonial jurisdiction was repealed in 1848. With the municipal edict , the tax district was transformed into the municipality of Schambach in 1818, which was incorporated into Treuchtlingen on July 1, 1971 as part of the regional reform in Bavaria .

In 1811 the mill was auctioned off by Jakob Christoph Quinat after it went bankrupt. His successor maintained paper production until 1820, after which it was converted into a fulling mill and later a grain mill. In 1853 the property passed to the Fackelmeier family, now Schweinesbein. In 1960 the grain grinding was stopped and the mill property was continued as a full-time farm.

The steep-roofed mill building from 1765, which was flanked by two linden trees from the 18th century until the 2010s, is in the Bavarian region along with a single-storey commercial extension and a barn in Jura construction, probably from the second half of the 19th century List of monuments entered.
