The millrace was constructed around 300 years ago (1720) to ensure a reliable water supply for the Elector's mill in the village of Schwarzach. Diverting the water from the Hirschenstein mountain, across the Grandsberg hill, to Schwarzach was a technically complex undertaking at the time, as it required altering the natural course of the watercourse and, for example, rerouting it around the summit of the Schopf mountain. In the early 1980s, Helmut Fritsch, head of the Mitterfels Forestry Office at the time, had the millrace restored along a stretch of almost 6 km. This was a significant achievement, as it allowed this important historical and technical monument to be preserved. Now, some 30 years later, further repairs, such as securing the millrace, replacing the wooden sleepers, and removing erosion, were necessary to maintain it as a cultural and historical structure. The Bavarian State Forests (Bayerische Staatsforsten AöR) carried out the restoration work through the Bodenmais Forestry Office, the locally responsible manager of the state forest areas. As part of its special public benefit program, the Free State of Bavaria – Bavarian Forestry Administration – provided the manager with 90% funding. Source: www.baysf.de
