This mill was located at one of the fords in the Pram River, which is why our ancestors called it the "Furthmühle." For centuries, the Furthmühle was an important agricultural and commercial enterprise. Approximately 140 millers from 12 communities supplied the mill with their grain. Until the period between the two World Wars, "Mauthen" (toll collection) was common practice at the mill. The farmer paid nothing for the milling, while the miller kept ten percent of the grain as a toll. In addition to the head miller, two miller's apprentices worked at the Furthmühle. The sawmill had three to six employees, with occasional day laborers joining in, such as when loading timber. Two farmhands and two maids worked on the farm, which had approximately 30 yokes of land (10 of which were forest). The "Müllnerstubn" (mill owner's room) was a meeting place for all family members and servants. A small power plant supplied part of the Pram estate with electricity since electrification began around 1918. Two additional storage batteries were available for peak consumption (e.g., during balls or weddings). In 1922, the Pram Light Company was founded and took over the Furthmühle's electricity customers. In 1992, the Furthmühle Cultural Association was founded and began the renovation and repair work as the operator of the site. Three years later, the facility opened for public viewing. In 2001, the Furthmühle joined the Association of Upper Austrian Open-Air Museums. Opening hours: May 1 to October 31 on Sundays and public holidays from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m., and by appointment by phone at +43 677 63 15 94 29 or by email at office@furthmuehle.at
