history
The Huttenschloss is the most important historical building in the Bad Soden valley settlement. It was built around 1536 by Lukas von Hutten and his wife Apollonia von Frankenstein after they lost their original residence at Stolzenberg Castle . It was continuously inhabited by different lines of the family until 1814. Lukas von Hutten's great-nephew Johann extended the first building with a side wing (dated 1594) and a stables (1599). After the von Hutten line died out, ownership changed. First , in 1819 , Jean Pierre Dupré (1762–1848), a timber merchant from the Rhineland-Palatinate , bought the castle. In 1875 Georg Vitriarius, who owned the rights to use the city's revitalized brine springs, set up the first private bathing establishment in the basement . The saline healing water was transported from the springs to the castle in wooden barrels. In 1901 it was sold to the yarn manufacturer Johann Adolf Krafft from Offenbach , who modernized it and converted it into a summer residence for his family with an English landscape park .
