In 1328, Jörg Wiedergrün von Staufenberg is mentioned as the first owner of the ‘mills near the Durrenbach Wiler’. He was succeeded by Andreas von Wiedergrün in 1378. In 1655, Ullrich Marbach, a Strasbourg citizen, sold the mill to Michael Scherer, the Staufenberg official.

On 8 January 1661, the mill was sold by his widow Anna Margaretha to High Well-born Carl Neveu de la Folie. Under the tenant Karl Ludwig Streif, the mill stopped operating in 1976. Ownership changed once again in 1998.
