Ev. Holzhausen Church

The small village was first mentioned in a document in 1195. At that time the place was called Holtzhusen . From 1451 the Neme changed to Holczhusen . The current name has been used since 1592.

From 1545 to 1824, Holzhausen belonged to the accessories of Brandenfels Castle and thus belonged to the fiefdom of the Treusch von Buttlar family . From 1585 the place belonged to the Sontra Office , from 1818 to the Netra Justice Office and from 1821 to the Eschwege district .

Buttlarsche Gut Hohenhaus is referred to as Hohenhausen on a map in 1708 . It was acquired in 1856 by the Hessian politician Ferdinand von Schutzbar , whose son had the current mansion built by the architect Bodo Ebhardt in 1901 . In 1934 Hohenhaus passed from the property of the Schutzbar family called Milchling to that of the Hamburg publisher Richard Ganske (1876–1956), the founder of the reading circle " Readers' Circle At Home ". His son, the publisher Kurt Ganske (1905–1979), had the palace extensively renovated and modernized in 1959. Since 1978 a hotel belonging to the Ganske publishing group and operated as a Relais & Châteaux hotel has been operated in part of the manor, which has been rebuilt and renovated several times after renovations by the Frankfurt architect Jochem Jourdan .
