description

The former vineyard farm building and later the main building of the hospital is an elongated, two-story plastered building with twelve to three axes under a high hipped roof . It is built diagonally into the slope. In 1872, a terrace with an artistically decorated wooden veranda was added to the front side of the valley. On the courtyard side there is a half-timbered staircase. The building was converted into a convalescent home in 1893 by the Dresden Building Department. The upper floor is boarded up today. The eaves sides of the roof now have drag dormers instead of the original bat dormers.

history

Augustusweg 76 to 114 below the wooded steep slope to the north. To the left of the building on the right (Fiedlerhaus), the Fiedlergrund runs from north to south.

In 1658, the chamberlain at the time and later Saxon Chancellor Wolff Siegfried von Lüttichau auf Zschorna and Baßlitz (1610–1671) established a winery there in Lößnitz , on Finstergrund . A wax bleaching facility was also operated on this in the early 18th century . In 1818 the distiller CG Walther took over the winery, after which the vineyard was later called Walther's vineyard . From 1823 Walther also ran a pub of the same name there. His successor CL Müller took over the estate and tavern and converted them into a regular inn of the same name in 1834.

The founding act of the rural community Oberlößnitz took place in this tavern Walthers Weinberg on August 6, 1839 . In 1880 a hall with an orchestral stage and an adjoining room was built in place of the restaurant, presumably by the Ziller brothers .

The elongated two-story farm building, which is still standing today, was built around 1715. Probably because of the phylloxera disaster , the winery had to be closed in 1892. Fiedler recognized the microclimate of Oberlößnitz, which had a beneficial effect on breast patients. On his recommendation, the city of Dresden acquired the property in the same year. By 1893, it had been converted into a home for mentally healthy lung patients in need of recovery, initially for 30 patients. In reference to the founder, the house was given the name Fiedlerhaus . Today it is a listed building. Also for the nearby valley cut, Walthers Grund , the term Fiedlergrund became popular in a very short time .

During the First World War, the property was a military hospital , after which it served as a convalescent home until the end of the 1960s and from 1970 until the 1990s as a nurses' home for the Dresden-Neustadt hospital.

To the east of the Fiedlerhaus was the Augustenhaus women's convalescent home , which was demolished in 1988. Its house number was later transferred to the hall building converted into a residential building as Augustusweg 116 / 116a, while the Fiedlerhaus itself received the addresses Augustusweg 114 / 114a-g after the conversion into an apartment building.
