history

Portal of the Reuschberg Academy

In the early Middle Ages, the Reuschberg court was a large court complex and belonged to the Palatinate in Gelnhausen . From 1250 Reuschberg went to the Counts of Rieneck , who handed the court over to the Electorate of Mainz in the 14th century . Around 1720 the residential buildings and the courtyard were completely renewed. The operator of the Großkahler Glashütte bought the entire courtyard around 1800. The subsequent owners were the Counts of Öttingen . The forest mill in Schöllkrippen belonged to the farm until the beginning of the 19th century. In 1924 the Reuschberg farm was sold to the Pallottine Order. In 1938 the current chapel with the padres room was built and the monastery was managed by the brothers themselves. The Mission House Maria Hilf was established. The 92.5 hectares of forest and arable land belonging to the Reuschberg Monastery have been leased since the Second World War . In May 1967 the monastery was closed. An academy for theater and art has been located in the building since 1991 .
