Nové Mlýny (Jihomoravský kraj, Czech Republic) Nové Mlýny
(German, Neumühl, Neumühle), Moravia, in the 16th century was a
large mill on the Eisgrub estate belonging to the Liechtenstein
family. It was located on the left bank of the Thaya River. By
the 1950s it had become a village with a population of 400 and a
new mill, which was on the same site as the above. Here and in
Tracht the Hutterian Brethren built a Bruderhof in 1558. The
settlement around this mill became one of the most important
Anabaptist settlements of Moravia. It was the residence of the
"bishop" and leader of the entire brotherhood. On 25 January
1570 the delegates of the Polish anti-Trinitarians arrived at
Neurmühl to confer with the Brethren on the subject of
unification with them, whose leader was Peter Walpot, whereupon
an exchange of correspondence followed, but which did not lead
to a union. After Walpot's death on 5 February 1578, Hansel Kräl
of Kitzbühel was chosen as leader of the entire brotherhood. He
died here on 14 November 158
