To the Southshore best developed in the 16th century as part of the landlord farming more mills, copper works, a paper mill and other manufactories, who knew how to use the energy of the flowing water of the Southshore best economically. The facility and the lease of these businesses brought the squire of Rohlfshagen and Höltenklinken additional sources of income. The development was therefore by the Trittauer bailiff Moritz Rantzau († 1587 ) from the castle in Trittau very encouraged, not least was Rohlfshagen a good and temporary residence of his employer, Duke Adolf I of Holstein - Gottorp and Höltenklinken his own, which he of had acquired the Knight Sievert SWYN.
