1. Die Steinmühle
Die Steinmühle wurde 1303 als Getreidemühle von den Zisterziensermönchen aus dem Kloster Zinn erbaut und von diesen betrieben. Bis 1766 wurde die Mühle als Getreidemühle genutzt, bis der damalige Mühlenmeister eine Genehmigung zur Anlegung einer Schneidemühle (Sägewerk) erhielt.
1845 wurde sie wieder abgerissen und danach als Ölmühle wiederaufgebaut. Ende 19. Jahrhunderts wurde auf Dampfkraft erweitert und die Mühle zur Strohpapierstoff-Fabrik umgebaut. Sie wurde auch weiter als Dampfmühle genutzt. 1918 firmiert die Mühle als „G. Thiele Steinmühle“. Inhaber war Emil Gericke, der Schwiegersohn von G.Thiele. 1934 wurde die Dampfmaschine durch einen Motor ersetzt und die Mühle vergrößert.
The Army Clothing Office was built by the Wehrmacht from 1939 and served from 1941 to 1945 with well over a thousand employees as a warehouse for uniforms and army accessories of the German Wehrmacht. It consisted of a main office and a secondary office in the neighborhood, each of which had around 65,000 square meters of floor space. A modern construction in reinforced concrete frame construction, borrowed from industrial construction, is particularly typical for the structural design of both plants. The bright red clinker bricks placed in front of the building give the buildings a subtle expressionist note and refer to the North German brick tradition. The roof structures are made of solid reinforced concrete in order to counter possible air attacks with incendiary bombs. This gives them an impressive monumental effect.
After the war, the Soviet Army initially used the building complex as a collection point for reparations goods before they were transported east. She later used it as a central replenishment and supply depot on the territory of the GDR, the area for storing army clothing, army accessories and spare parts. Clothing was also repaired, there was a laundry (dry cleaning) and a sewing shop. In addition, there was a transport unit, the staff of the central supply depot and a central field post distribution point. A replenishment brigade of the Soviet Ministry of Defense was located in the sub-camp next to the depot. The main office became the "armored barracks" of the 90th Soviet armored division. Since the GSSD withdrew in 1991, the premises of the main office have been vacant. Housing construction in the listed buildings is to begin in the early 1920s. The secondary office was converted into apartments in the 10s. The photos are from the main office.
