history

The Wenceslas mill from the 17th century has been handed down for the first time. At that time it was called "lower mill" and was half in the hands of the Zollner von der Hallburg , who also held the bailiwick of Krautheim. The mill was part of a farm and supplied the residents with grain. After mediatization , the mill came to the district of Krautheim in 1806 and became part of the Volkach district court . Today the mill is used as a residential building.

Attractions

The center of the mill complex is a two-storey half-hipped roof on a hook-shaped floor plan. The barn next to it is from the 18th or 19th century.
