It is connected, among other things, via an asphalt, non-public access road from the southern state road 331 (Königswinter– Ittenbach ).

history

The Einkehrhaus, also called Einkehrhäuschen , was built in 1926 as a log cabin based on a design by the architect Th. Wildemann based on the Heimatschutz style . The client for the construction was Emma Bachem , a member of the Prussian state parliament , who planned the - unrealized - construction of a chapel to commemorate those who died in the First World War opposite the excursion restaurant . An original portico as part of a veranda was integrated into the interior of the building as a guest room or café when the arcades were closed in 1930 . The Einkehrhaus, which served as a refuge for the owner family at that time, survived the Second World War largely unscathed.

architecture

The Einkehrhaus is a single-storey plastered building that can be stylistically attributed to Expressionism . The central entrance, supported by wooden pillars , is in a gabled house ( slate below, boarded up above). The outside area consists of a terrace , which is closed by a parapet wall and also includes a row of beeches .

“In a reduced form [at the Waidmannsruh Einkehrhaus] the type of Margarethenhof can be found as a log cabin. The architect deliberately followed up on the tradition of the arbor house motif in the Rhineland. "
