history

The main building (manor house) of the former manor district of Ruhland is commonly called the manor. The building was erected between 1730 and 1750 and served as an office building (so named in the chronicle in 1768) and at times as the local seat of the Ruhland estates. It is an elongated building with an L-shaped floor plan, a solid ground floor, half-timbering on the upper floor, a half-hip roof and a cross vault in the east wing.

Changing rulers

Since 1397 Ruhland was owned by the von Gersdorff family . In 1622 she sold the estate (Ruhland, Guteborn, Arnsdorf and Biehlen) to Hans Georg von Hoym . Gotthelf Adolf von Hoym died in 1783. His property fell to his daughter Louise-Henriette, wife of Heinrich XLII, who later became Prince Reuss zu Schleiz . In 1813, the French general Oudinot temporarily took quarters here with the then court director Spitzner. In 1849 the jurisdiction of the landlords ended ( patrimonial jurisdiction ). Adelheid zu Reuss-Schleiz died in 1880, and her property went to daughter Anna zu Bentheim-Tecklenburg-Rheda . After her death in 1902, the property fell to her eldest daughter, Princess Luise zu Schönburg-Waldenburg, mother of the last lord of the castle on Guteborn, Prince Ulrich, 6th Prince of Schönburg-Waldenburg .

In 1920 the teacher Gähler bought the house for 30,000 marks and had it converted and expanded into a residential building.

Local museum on the market

On May 24, 1958, a home parlor was opened on the market. Reinhold Schneider was in charge.

Recent history

Manor, entrance area

The building was reconstructed from 1991 to 1993 as part of the inner city renovation. The idea of ​​setting up a wine bar in the vault failed due to building and hygiene regulations. The manor was visited on August 19, 1993 as part of a working visit by the then Minister of Culture Hinrich Enderlein; a choir from the music school performed under the direction of Gudrun Goßmann. The Heimatstube was officially opened on February 22nd, 1995 with a slide show by the former teacher Horst Bormann. Since then, the Association for Home Care 1889 Ruhland / Oberlausitz e. V. has its permanent seat in this building.

There is a branch of the Oberspreewald-Lausitz music school in the eastern part of the upper floor.

After June 30, 2017, there was an oven that students from the Geschwister-Scholl-Schule helped to set up. The project was financed by the Lausitzer WGV and brought into being by the mayor Uwe Kminikowski so that the stove can serve as a meeting place. The school group cleaned the stones, laid the foundation on June 21, then built the base and completed the furnace on June 30, 2017. A protective roof that was subsequently built required a permit from the building authorities. A cure (subsequent approval) was promised by some authorities, but failed due to procedural issues between the official administration, the monument protection authority and the city council. The association “Wir für Ruhland” then dismantled the oven, as the “Verein't im Zollhaus” offered to build it on its own site.

Exhibitions

The structure of Heimatstube include utensils and tools from households and old craft of some archaeological finds, a Urbarium 1717, journeyman and Innungsbiefe, remains of a stick dam from the 10th century and a model of modeled from radicals fishing huts. An inspection of the holdings is possible on request. In the coat of arms hall are the coats of arms of the 4 Ruhland estates.
