The barley mill was one of the so-called "groats mills" that processed oats and barley and was one of the 25 mills in the Burscheid area that can be considered the early stages of Burscheid's industry. The barley mill drew its hydropower from the Wiembach stream. It was first documented at the end of the 18th century.

The current building dates from the second half of the 19th century and is used exclusively as a residential building.
