Spritzbriehheisje. This "spritzbräuh" facility was built in the mid-1930s. At this location, winegrowers could collect the copper-lime mixture, which was then sprayed in the vineyards to ward off the dangerous "downy mildew," a fungal disease of grapevines. Dosing and mixing required both expertise and care and was carried out by a trusted person. The purchase of the ingredients and distribution of the "spritzbrieh" was regulated by a cooperative. Since handling the raw materials is not without risks, the "spritzbrieh" was mixed at a central location, usually on the outskirts of town, in or on the "spritzbriehheisje" and then distributed to the winegrowers, who collected it in barrels on horse-drawn or ox-drawn carts. In the early 1960s, ready-mixed mixtures emerged that winegrowers could mix themselves; after that, these special huts were no longer needed.

Dear Dietmar J. (DJ), The friend who told you the story about the flak tower is mistaken! This building was actually built to supply winegrowers with spray liquid for their vineyards. Similar buildings exist or existed in Armsheim and Rommersheim, among other places. All are located on the outskirts of the village on the main road to the vineyards.
