It was built around 1680 as a fulling mill. And that is also the reason for the leaning position that has become apparent over the years. One reason was the fulling of the machine to produce fabrics. To operate the fulling mill, there was a mill wheel that was powered by water. There was a mill ditch for this. Over time, the water undermined the house. That was another reason for the leaning position. The half-timbering saved the house from collapsing.
