history
It is known from the Wandelmühle that on February 28, 1776, the miller Wolfgang Steinbauer acquired the inheritance law mill, along with the house and building rights. When he died in 1790, the widower left the property with living and dead inventory as well as a sum of 800 guilders to his cousin Katharina Schürzinger, an unmarried mercenary daughter from Prünst .
In 1809 there is evidence of a Lorenz Geiß on the Wandelmühle, who took it over from his parents Joseph and Maria Geiß for 2,700 guilders that year. In 1823 Joseph Geiß sat on the Wandlhof and a Joseph Bauer on the Wandelmühle. In 1843 Sebastian Obermeier was the owner of the Wandlmühle, which he had acquired on April 4, 1829 from the miller Thadäus Krauss for 1850 guilders. In 1903 Peter Plötz senior became the owner of the convertible mill. and Peter Plötz jun. has been managing the Wandelmühle since October 5, 1937.
The Bavarian Forest Railway has been running right past the Wandelmühle since 1877 .
On May 8, 1882, the property was badly damaged in a storm. From the east a thunderstorm had come over the rain and the March . There was a hail shower over the Wandelbach valley, combined with a heavy downpour. The Wandelbach swelled to a raging body of water. The water took with it the blocks piled up in the Reisachmühle below the Wandelmühle. At the Wandelmühle they hit the outer wall of the house with force and finally crushed it. The water penetrated into the living room almost to the ceiling, in the living room the hailstones were table-high. When the water receded after a while, there were so many fish on the stream meadows next to the river that the residents of the neighboring villages of Lämmersdorf and Giggenried were able to carry them home in their baskets.
