The oldest known Vakufnama (deed of perpetual endowment) with details of mills was issued for a maintenance endowment dating from 1815, as a result of which the mills can be assumed to date from the early 19th century. They are built of rough-cut stone and are plain and unadorned. Their size is determined by their length, which in turn depends on the number of arches by which the building spans the two banks of the river.
A Vakufnama dating back to 1815 documented the establishment of mills as part of a maintenance endowment. As a result, it can be inferred that these mills date from the early 19th century.
