View of the Old Mill in Steinenhausen
Highlight • Monument
The mill, of which only a few walls remain today, was twice destroyed by major fires.
In September 1923, a fire broke out on the top floor of the then state-of-the-art mill. The local fire brigades tried to request a motorized pump from Kulmbach – unfortunately, their calls went unanswered, and the delay led to the complete destruction of the mill's equipment.
After the major fire, the mill was modernized again by the owners in 1958.
Then, in July 1962, another major fire broke out. When the fire brigades arrived, several parts of the mill were already engulfed in flames. Despite the valiant efforts of the firefighters and the use of a new turntable ladder, the mill burned to the ground.
