At the end of the 19th century, there were several water mills in Tychy, which were generally smaller, and were not fully prepared for the ever-growing needs of the growing city and other nearby towns. For this reason, it was decided to remedy this problem, which resulted in the construction of a new, larger mill, which to this day stands at Starokościelna Street.
The construction of the mill began at the end of the 1890s. Its original location was supposed to be a bit further from its current location, namely across the street. Due to the "Potok Tyski" flowing next to the planned construction of the mill, no work was carried out here, for fear of waterlogging of the area. The company "Andre & Felldner", which undertook the construction of the building, finally finished it in 1910. Its name is still visible on the building's ankles.
In the 20s of the twentieth century, it was supplied with electricity and was given the name "Tychowski electric mill". Above the main gate, the date of commencement of operations is still visible, although the inscription differs from the original. However, the initials of the first owners, Jan and Wiktoria Drob, plastered at the time of the mill's nationalization, have not been preserved. They were placed under the windows on the first floor, on both sides of the gate.
In 1946, the mill was nationalized under the nationalization act. Today it still exists and is privately owned.
