Description

Today, Hörle Mill consists
of stone foundations, cultural remains of the industrial activities that once took
place on the site.

The origin of Hörle
Bruk and the Hörle community is the waterfall in River Lagan. As early as the
14th century, the waterfall was used as a source of power, and a mill was
built. Medieval sources indicate that Nydala Abbey was a prominent owner with
several mills in the region, including in Hörle. The first records about the
operation of the mill in Hörle date back to 1360, when Ulf Arvidsson donated
his share to Nydala Abbey. Operations at the mill continued until 1961.
