The mystical origins of the area go back to the 9th century. There is said to have been a Benedictine provost's house there, which was destroyed by angry farmers at Pentecost 1525. It is also said to have been a pilgrimage destination. However, these claims probably referred to the Gangolf Chapel on the summit plateau. The first traces of settlement date back to the 15th century. At that time, a farm is called Wermers. Half of it belonged to the Lords of Bastheim, the other half to the Lords of Heldritt in Helmershausen. From 1671, the University of Würzburg owned the farm. The property included 105 acres of arable land, 78 ½ acres of Rhönfelder, 1 ½ acres of garden and herb land, two houses, stables, barns and outbuildings. In 1821, the building was exchanged for the Bavarian state. In 1900, Baron von Schellerer built a villa next door, which, after changing hands twice, finally became the property of the Schweinfurt branch of the Rhön Club. Originally, a hiking lodge was planned at the Steinernes Haus. The low purchase price changed the plan. The house was inaugurated on July 25, 1922. 1,200 guests from Schweinfurt, a total of 3,000, came to attend. Electric light was installed in 1929. During the Nazi era, the house was used by the Wehrmacht. In 1945, the club took over again. Two years later, the club sold drinks for the first time. Since then, tenants have taken over the catering. From 1965 to 1967, the house was extended and modernized. In 1979, the club bought the Alte Forsthaus, which was also modernized. Various renovations and conversions followed. In 2001, three cisterns with a total capacity of 45,000 liters were built for possible fire fighting. Today, visitors to the Schweinfurter Haus and the Altes Forsthaus can be provided with everything from breakfast to full board by the hosts. (Wikipedia)

Info from the Rhön guide: "Beautifully located, in a valley between the Lower Franconian towns of Filke, Willmars and Neustädtles not far from the picturesque communities of Fladen and Ostheim, is our guest house, a gem in the Bavarian Rhön right in the heart of Germany. Standing alone, without direct neighbors, you can experience nature up close, enjoy the silence and, on clear nights, marvel at a starry sky that is otherwise only seen in desert regions. We will host you in the “Grundmühle” as if it were your own gem. Familiar, warm, down-to-earth and dog-friendly."
