Despite several fires, which left the manor house unharmed, the iron hammer, the forge and the sawmill remained in operation until around 1845, when the construction of the Ludwig-Danube-Main-Canal removed the water power from the Gauchsbach.

Gugelhammer was first documented in 1310 as a farm. In the course of history Gugelhammer had many changing owners. Since 1709 it was a late medieval armor operation in particular cannon balls were made. Therefore, the name "Kugelhammer". The nearby water-rich Gauchsbach offered the best conditions for water-powered businesses over the centuries.
