The Heisterbach oil mill was built in 1728 by the Heisterbach monks and acquired by the Counts of Lippe in 1803. These were given to a citizen Johann Proff, who expanded the oil mill in 1846 with a barley peeling line and shortly afterwards added an oil press. The oil mill was in operation until 1914, the pond and weir can still be seen today. Source: kuladig.de/Object View/O-FJK-20100630-0027
