Chausseehaus is a group of houses formerly used as a summer retreat and a forest area in the Rhine-Taunus Nature Park and belongs to the city of Wiesbaden located about 6 km east-southeast .

history

It was named after the Nassau customs house, where travelers had to pay tolls and customs on the Bäderstraße, which was built in 1764 . In the place of this chausseehaus there is now a forester's house . In 1787 the residential area belonged to the Principality of Nassau-Usingen and from 1867 to the city of Wiesbaden. In the Wilhelmine era , the area was used as a summer resort with a restaurant , a rest home and a hotel . It was connected to Langenschwalbach and Wiesbaden via Bäderstraße and a train station on the Aartalbahn . The Kaiser Wilhelm Tower on the Schläferskopf , one and a half kilometers to the north, served as a nearby lookout point. As a remnant of the Second World War, there is still a splinter protection cell on the Chausseehaus ( 50 ° 5 ′ 49.1 ″  N , 8 ° 10 ′ 18.3 ″  E ) .

The adjacent parking lot is the starting point for hikes and bike tours in the surrounding forests. a. in the FFH areas beech forests north of Wiesbaden and Weilburger Tal-Klingengrund in the valley of the Weilburger Bach .

The former train station and today's Chausseehaus stop ( 50 ° 5 ′ 48 ″  N , 8 ° 10 ′ 18 ″  E ) was opened at 290  m on the Aartalbahn at the end of the 19th century ; the neighboring stations are Wiesbaden-Dotzheim and Eiserne Hand . Since Biebrich owned forest areas around the Chausseehaus, the station was called Biebrich Chausseehaus until at least 1907 . The station was also used for passenger traffic to the hotel , restaurant and rest home and had three tracks. On May 28, 1967, the mechanical signal box was taken out of service and then the station was dismantled to the halt. On September 25, 1983, passenger traffic on the Wiesbaden - Bad Schwalbach section was discontinued. In 1986 passenger traffic with museum trains was resumed by the Nassauische Touristik-Bahn (NTB), which is based in the neighboring Dotzheimer train station . A year later, the buildings and the technical systems of the line and the station were listed as a historical monument . Today the station only consists of one track with a platform. The station building to the southwest of the platform is privately owned.

As part of the “ Stadtbahn Wiesbaden ” project, a resumption of passenger traffic between Bad Schwalbach and Wiesbaden was discussed between 1998 and 2001 and between 2011 and 2013. The tram would have branched off from the Chausseehaus on its own tracks and drove through Wiesbaden city center. Today there are plans to reactivate the Aartalbahn as a city or regional train .

building

Forester's house

Forsthaus Chausseehaus

In 1816 the prince of Nassau issued the edict to organize the forest administration and the Chausseehaus forest area was established. The present forest office building was built from bricks in 1896 . The forester's house Chausseehaus ( 50 ° 6 ′ 3 ″  N , 8 ° 9 ′ 37 ″  E ) is today the Hessen-Forst office responsible for a total of 16,000 hectares of forest, including the 3800 hectare state forest, the forests of the cities of Idstein and Taunusstein , the communities of Niedernhausen and Waldems as well as private forest.

The approximately 30 employees of the forester's house and the 8 forest rangers provide information on nature conservation , forest and hunting as well as forest and adventure-educational activities and sell wood and game meat.

Joseph Tree House

Joseph-Baum-Haus of the HB Wagnitz-Seminar

The German Society for Merchant Recreational Homes (GKH) opened the Kaiser Wilhelm Home to the west of the restaurant in May 1913 ( 50 ° 5 ′ 49 ″  N , 8 ° 9 ′ 25 ″  E ) . The imposing new building designed by the Wiesbaden architect Paul A. Jacobi was rather modest inside. On the ground floor there was a dining room, common rooms such as a men's smoking room, a ladies' room and a writing and reading hall, while the living room was on the upper floor.

The convalescent home served as a hospital for wounded soldiers from trade and industry during the First World War . After the end of the German Empire , it was renamed Taunus-Heim and in the 1920s the number of guests rose again. During the Second World War , a military hospital was set up there again, in which, among other things, the injured in the bombing of Wiesbaden were taken care of. Between 1945 and 1949 it served as a hospital and then again as a recreation center, since 1965 under the name Joseph-Baum-Haus. Since November 24, 1984 it has been the seat of the HB Wagnitz seminar of the Hessian Justice Academy and is named Joseph-Baum-Haus after the founder of the GKH.

House Taunusfreude

From at least 1959, the German Red Cross maintained the Taunusfreude children's recreation home about 600 m south-east of the inn on the railway line. The ensemble ( 50 ° 5 ′ 34 ″  N , 8 ° 10 ′ 54 ″  E ) consists of a two-story main house with a crooked roof and several one-story extensions. All buildings are made of visible framework . In September 1989, after a three-year rest period, the home was reactivated as a reception camp for citizens of the GDR . The buildings in the forest, which the city of Wiesbaden subsequently used to accommodate families from resettlers, were handed over to the Free Christian School in Wiesbaden in 2005, which also runs a kindergarten there. The school's expansion plans, the possible construction of a private road to improve the connection and the use of the nearby Langendellschlags football field as a school sports facility sparked discussions in the neighboring district of Kohlheck .

Villa Taunusblick

To the north of today's inn was the Villa Taunusblick ( 50 ° 5 ′ 53 ″  N , 8 ° 10 ′ 5 ″  E ) , which was used as a summer resort and hotel around 1900 . The adjacent forest recreation site was used by the National Socialist People's Welfare and in 1952 it was converted into a sanatorium by the workers' welfare organization . The building complex, consisting of a total of three buildings, stood empty from the mid-1970s and was left to decay. From 1989 the ensemble from the turn of the century was acquired by an investor who wanted to accommodate asylum seekers there . In 1991 the city of Wiesbaden issued a demolition order, which was confirmed by the court in 2002. In 2003 the buildings were demolished and a lawsuit for damages was considered.
