history

Monastery barn

The property is the former barn of the Hausen monastery ; it is in front of the former farm buildings of the monastery.

The elongated, single-storey building with a gable roof and two wide entrance gates is made of masonry or quarry stone. The building, which has largely been preserved in its original state, dates from the 18th century ( city ​​and district home keeper Werner Eberth, in turn, mentions 1683 as the year the barn was built).

On July 7, 1940, Cardinal Julius Döpfner from Hausen celebrated his homeland prime in Hausen with an announcement of July 6, 1940 in the local Saale newspaper . The reception took place in front of the monastery barn.

Processional altar

The processional altar made of sandstone consists of a flat, one meter high base with an inscription and a 1.50 meter high retable-like relief attachment with a depiction of the crucifixion in a neo-Gothic frame. The crucifixion shows the crucified Jesus Christ with the secondary characters Mary and John . The base has a depth of 36 to 40 cm.

According to the inscription on the base stone of the base, the processional altar was made by stonemason Josef Metz. The inscription on the base itself indicates the year 1852 was the year the processional altar was created and the couple Adam and Annamaria Häfner as donors. At the end of the 1970s the altar was repaired, the first name of Annamaria Häfner being shortened to "Ann".
