Rennerterhausen Mill

The first dated documentary mention of a miller at Rennertehausen took place in 1584 in connection with a baptism. The mill ditch of the grinding, beating and cutting mill, initially separated by a shrub weir to the Eder, was given a stone weir in 1865 by the miller Alexander Wickenhöfer and his wife, which could withstand the floods of the Eder better. An energy system for direct current built in 1916 supplied the electricity for the first electric light in Rennertehausen from 1917 until it was connected to the Frankenberg district network in 1922. In 1969, a generator was installed to operate the existing turbine and the electricity generated has since been fed into the power grid. The current mill building on the plant south of the village, which was operated as a mill until 1968, was built in 1927.

Very nice property!
