Ettersdorf Castle Estate

" On December 21, 1309, Ulrich der Truchseß von Heilsperch sold his farm in Oettersdorf to the Abbess Elsbert von Pülenhofen with the approval of his brother Heinrich, the Truchsessen von Ekmuel and his son Ulrich an Hof ", so the wording of the first documentary mention. Until the transfer of ownership to the Princes of Thurn and Taxis in 1812 , the castle estate was owned by the lords of Heilsberg-Wiesent . It has been privately owned since 1992.

The former Ettersdorf hunting lodge was sold by Baron von Lemmen to Thurn und Taxis on October 14, 1812. The palace was an almost square, two-storey building with a belvedere above a truncated pyramid roof from the 18th century. The prince's accommodation was on the first floor when he was hunting in the princely Thiergarten, which is located nearby and which was also bought in 1812 by Prince Karl Alexander von Thurn und Taxis. In 1897 a barn standing across the farm buildings burned down, in October 1951 the hunting lodge in the center fell victim to a fire. After the fire, the reconstruction was planned but not implemented. Today the property is privately owned; the farm and stables were restructured into a residential building.

In October 1796 the nun Johanna Antida Thouret and her French community came to Ettersdorf for six months, where they lived in the castle. She founded an order of sisters (solitarians) in Besancon in 1799 and was on January 14, 1934 by Pope Pius XI. canonized. A memorial was erected by the community of Wiesent for St. Johanna Antida Thouret.
