Nr. on the small map: 1 (Bürgstadt)
In the Museum Bürgstadt timelines show the local historical events in relation to church history and trans-regional history. This way the museum presents the history of the region in a seamless graphic way, beginning in prehistoric times and going century by century to our time.
The location – the old “Mittelmühle” (“central mill”) – which was already mentioned in 1248, is of some interest in itself. The current building, however, was built around 1900. Only the millrace going through the house could be older.
The heavy runner stone in front of the entrance was found on the banks of the river Erf and originates from the “Upper Mill”, which was destroyed in the “Michelswasser” (“St. Michael’s flood”) in 1732 (for more information see nr. 3).
