Crown Prince Wilhelm, interested in horses and agriculture from his youth, found ideal conditions for his breeding plans at his summer residence in Scharnhausen in 1810. He acquired the Hof Mill, dating from 1566, located in the immediate vicinity of his castle. At the beginning of the 19th century, the "Hofer Mill" became part of the royal private stud farm Scharnhausen-Weil. The well, built in 1822, initially served as an incubator for trout breeding and later as a horse trough.
