description

Bennoschlösschen, view from the Spitzhaus . The northern two-story extension is clearly visible, in front of it the western barn extension. Above, cut in the Steinbach house

The two-storey, massive mansion "of beautiful proportions" in the Renaissance style has an almost square floor plan with a gable roof with two-zone volute gables and round windows. At the eaves sides one is located in each center Zwerchhaus also with a scrolled pediment and round windows. The gables are oriented towards the four cardinal points. The roof is a rafter roof with valley and tap beams , for which only carpenter connections with wooden nails were used.

There are a few tiny looking square windows with folding shutters in the walls. The south-west corner of the building is supported by a “huge buttress” with a pent roof.

On the north side there is a two-storey extension with a flat roof, which disturbs the overall picture.

The property consists of a large, high walled vineyard, which is protected as an annex to the preservation order .

history

In 1574, the chamberlain of the Saxon Elector August , Hans Harrer , acquired the Hermsdorf manor . At the same time he became landlord of Wahnsdorf . Harrer is considered to be the builder of the building called the Stone House . The building is shown on a map by Matthias Oeder from the First Electoral Saxon Land Survey around 1580/1600. The stone house stands on the Unterberg . Immediately above it was the Rote Presse , a wine press that was shared by several vineyard owners.

With his suicide in 1580 because of the involvement in the pepper trade of his elector and the resulting enormous losses (see Konrad Rott ), the property became a common old tenant inheritance , as it was written in a deed of lease from 1620. In 1620, Hans Harrer on Ringenhain , who was enfeoffed with it, bought four vineyard parts with the vineyard house for 3,000 guilders from the brothers Jacob and Ernst Kohlreuter, and in early 1621 he sold the two vineyards, Morgenland and Kössenberg, which were next to each other uphill . His brother Ernst Harrer inherited the remaining property in 1621 and sold it "with the well-built stone mountain house, including all of the tables, benches, beds and other movables, the household items and half of the red press lying halfway there" to the chief rent chamber master and " the rafts Directori “Christoff Felgenhauer.

In the 19th century the mansion was named Bennohaus or Bennoschlösschen in memory of Bishop Benno von Meißen . However, there is no evidence that the property was ever owned by the Meissen bishops. Only the local writer Karl Julius Hofmann wrote in 1851 in his work The Meissen Netherlands ... of the four narrow gables in the "shape of a bishop's cap". In 1867, around this time in the possession of the aristocratic family Metzsch (noble family) Metzsch-Reichenbach (before 1868 - after 1889), a stable building was added to the house in the west, in 1896 the Ziller brothers added heights to the old press room extension on the north side.

After the phylloxera disaster , a nursery was built on the cleared land, while today the land is again torn up and leased to the Hoflößnitz winery .

Around 1910, the Association for the Preservation of Old Cultural Monuments successfully campaigned for a gable to be restored.

Starting in 1992, the Bennoschlösschen , a listed building , has been extensively restored by its owner in terms of monument preservation. The house is rented.
