Hammersmith Riedlhammer, Industrial hammer mill in Gutau, Austria.

The Riedlhammer consists of several buildings including a late baroque manor house decorated with stucco elements and traditional wooden ceilings.

The hammer mill started operations before 1609 and became one of 42 recognized scythe forges in Upper Austria during the early 17th century.

The forge produced scythes marked with a double eagle seal, which were distributed throughout Russia and the Balkan regions.

In 1912, the industrial complex underwent transformation into a power plant while preserving its historical buildings and surrounding green spaces.

The Kindler family ownership from 1775 led to significant expansions, including the acquisition of Tannbach Castle and the neighboring Stampfenhammer forge.
