    History of file grinding

    The building was constructed around 1800 by Eberhard Blezinger, grandson of Johann Georg Bletzinger. In 1832, the Königliche Hüttenwerke bought the building and continued to use it as a turning shop. In 1902, the Burr family from Heidenheim acquired the building ensemble consisting of a residential building and workshop and used the workshop from then on as a file grinding shop. At that time, the water wheel was still used to drive the transmissions and grindstones.
