Nothing is known about the origin of the mill. It is mentioned around 1800. Grain was ground here until 1960 and electricity was generated with a turbine installed in 1943. Originally there were two undershot water wheels , one for grinding, the other for a cutting saw. The saw is still in use today.

In the Kingdom of Bavaria (1806) the Lengenfeld tax district was formed around 1810 , to which, in addition to the village of Lengenfeld, the village of Harenzhofen and the desert areas of Matzenhof , Ostermühle , Schafhof , Schwaighof and Weihermühle belonged. With the community edict of May 15, 1818 it became the rural community Lengenfeld in the Parsberg district court ; the Weihermühle has not been named separately since 1926, but is included in Lengenfeld, and the Schafhof was reclassified to Velburg on January 1, 1946. Eight residents lived in (the) Weihermühle in 1875; there were four buildings and two horses and four head of cattle were kept of cattle.
