Former mill and finishing building

History: Since the 14th century, several mills have profited from the fall of the Steinach in the wild Mülenen gorge. The property at Mühlenstrasse 30 was one of them and in the 18th century was under the administration of the Stockamt, which supplied the needy from the church's offering box. In November 1800, the property was sold to the private miller Silvester Mittelholzer. After further changes of ownership, it passed to the finisher Jacob Hungerbühler in 1857. In a finishing mill, the raw fabrics were treated according to the customer's specifications, for example smoothed and starched, which required a lot of water. In 1873, the miller Franz Anton Köppel acquired the buildings and converted to steam power in 1883, enabling him to operate a pasta factory. Various producers successively took over the business until the last owner had to file for bankruptcy and the cantonal bank took over the property in 1937. The production conditions in the narrow Steinachtobel no longer met modern requirements. Architecture: It is a simple building with three full storeys and an elevator dormer. The round outlet openings of the former turbine channel are visible in the basement. Current use: Today, the building is used as a residential building with several parties.
