View of Neuhütten
Highlight • Viewpoint
The emergence of the town of Neuhütten is clearly related to the construction of the ironworks in the valley in 1694. Soon the workers from Belgium settled in the area of today's town. While the people who belonged directly to the ironworks took their place of residence in the district of Schmelz, the charcoal burners and woodcutters founded the district of Zinsershütten around 1736. This district was named after the two Zinser families. The middle part of the community was founded in 1759/61. As early as 1756 there was a dispute between the owners of Züsch and the Birkenfeld office over the area of Schneidershütten which was located near Muhl. The settlement was evacuated and the families had to leave their place of residence. They were assigned new places to live on "a Placken". Through the French occupation around 1800, all three independent parts were combined to form a community called Neuhütten. In 1970, Muhl was spun off from the community of Börfink and assigned to the community of Neuhütten. Source: Text information board
