Hiking
Field names such as "in der Gruben", "Grubenschlag", "Erzweg" indicate that attempts were made in Theuern to cover the ore needs themselves.
In the 16th century: upswing under the Regensburg patrician family Portner (also lords of Wolfsbach and Leidersdorf)
Despite large forest holdings, the hammer came into economic difficulties in 1612 due to a lack of charcoal.
Before the Thirty Years' War, the hammer worked at a loss.
In 1632 it was destroyed by war.
The hammer appears several times in documents of the 17th century as "not practicable".
