history

The Freihof Frauenfels is a still existing castle of the former nobility of the city of Altenburg. The building was built by the electoral chancellor Melchior von Ossa between 1542 and 1551. The importance of the manor fell over the next decades, which led to frequent changes of ownership. The ducal chamber acquired the estate at the end of the 18th century. In 1875 the city bought it and set up a school there. Today there are opportunities for weddings and other festive family celebrations in the building.
