The bone mill was built in 1823 on the pond dam in Eisenbach. Parallel to the house wall, the water of a no longer existing mill ditch, branched off below the ancestral chapel of Eisenbach, was brought in here. Bone meal was made for fertilizer purposes.
The Bone Mill is a farm building built for Eisenbach Castle.

The building probably dates from the 19th century. At that time, bone meal was produced here for thinning.
