Possibly one of the old tanneries that were often located on the Schwarzbach.

Founded in 1907, the Rühl leather factory specialized in the production of fine leather – particularly high-quality leather for picture frames. Production facilities were located at Neueburgstrasse 25 (Plant I) and Hofheimer Strasse 57 (Plant II). The low-rise factory building on Hofheimer Strasse, which still retains its factory chimney, was built on the site of the former Kräckmannsmühle mill.
