Mansion

The "upper bourgeois villa " in the style of the German Renaissance stands on a corner lot directly on the street. The two-storey, "extraordinarily picturesque, moving [...] building" with a half-timbered drapery and high, tiled hipped roof shows a three-storey corner bay window with an octagonal dome and the inscription on the street cornerKrapenburg . In the left of it lying main view for the Middle a mountain road is located centrally of different dormers surrounded gable also in truss , the left subsequent narrow side forms a buttress with Krüppelwalmgiebel . The upper floor, which was rebuilt in 1899, has five windows, while the ground floor below still shows the eight original window axes, as can also be seen in the drawing of the vine, forest and fruit tree school in Neubert .

To the right of the corner bay on Krapenbergweg is a six-axis wing of the building, the roof with dormers . On the mountain side, this wing is adjoined by a simply plastered, lower building from the first half of the 19th century with four window axes and a saddle roof , which was not historically converted.

The courtyard side of the building is dominated by the soaring, octagonal tower with a half-timbered upper floor and a Welscher hood . Next to this is a stepped gable .

The variety of materials in the historicizing building results from different plaster structures and the colors in connection with cornices , the use of sandstone for the window frames , mostly in the form of curtain arches , and roofs as well as wood for the ornamental frameworks. The lead-glazed window in the stairwell facing the courtyard is remarkable . Inside there is a hall on the upper floor, the ceiling of which is decorated with neo-Gothic tracery .

Today there are several residential units that are not separated from each other in the house, which was originally inhabited by only one family.

Winegrower's house and bakery

Winzerhaus / Presshaus der Krapenburg. Eckstädt's coat of arms can be seen on the right behind the tree.
Finally with the enclosure: Backhaus

The Winzerhaus / Presshaus ( 51 ° 7 ′ 18.7 ″  N , 13 ° 36 ′ 11.5 ″  E ) is a two-storey, eaves-standing building with a tiled half-hip roof directly in the street . The ground floor, which was windowless to the street, housed press rooms, into which horse-drawn carts could originally be entered through gates to deliver the grapes. Below the ground floor there are two large barrel vaulted wine cellars, one for bottling and one for storing the barrels, with a sandstone staircase in between as access from the outside.

Seven windows can be seen on the upper floor. On the courtyard side there is a walled-in keystone with the initials CVVE for Christoph Vitzthum von Eckstädt , who acquired the winery in 1704, along with the date of 1710. The plastered building shows the remains of a simple structure, probably from the end of the 19th century. On both sides of the winegrower's house, the natural stone walls adjoin the enclosure , on the right with a recessed, rectangular gate . On the drawing of the vine, forest and fruit nursery shown below, it is the building on the left.

There is a small bakery with a hipped roof on the property wall.

Park and vineyard

The park and vineyard of the Krapenbergs are around 4 hectares in size. The park-like garden in the lower area consists of old trees with some remarkable trees (e.g. tulip tree , antler tree and hornbeam ).

history

The Krapenberg was mentioned in the land tax register of 1590 as Krap owned by the Dresden citizen Asmus Müller (Christoph Müller). Later names were Krapen , since the 17th century Krapenberg , in the meantime also Liebenauischer Weinberg and from 1704 Vitzthumscher Weinberg . As early as 1700 there were several buildings on the site, including a press house .

In 1670 Dorothea von Krahe owned the estate, then in 1699 the Liebenau family , in 1704 the Electoral Saxon chamberlain Christoph Vitzthum von Eckstädt (1633–1711) acquired the winery and built the mansion around 1710. He was followed by his son Friedrich I. Vitzthum von Eckstädt (1675–1726), Privy Councilor, cabinet minister under August the Strong and from 1711 Imperial Count .

The property reached its current size through the purchase of neighboring farm mountains at the beginning of the 18th century.

In 1821 the property belonged to the Baroness von Gutschmidt. In 1830 the vineyard was given its current name by Lieutenant a. D. Georg Christian Fischer, who ran his winery there.

Vine, forest and fruit tree school in Neubert. The building on the left is the winegrower's house, which looks almost the same today, and in the middle is the predecessor building of the manor house. On the right is the predecessor building of Villa Dankbarkeit , whose Neubert estate also belonged.

The Leipzig pharmacist Ludwig August Neubert ( Adler-Apotheke ), who later also owned the Langenberg winery , which is adjacent to the Krap , had the Talutanlage built on the Krapenberg in 1862 for the cultivation of table grapes and fine fruit varieties that are sensitive to cold, which today are one of the few in Europe still almost complete has been preserved and is also a listed building at the address Kynastweg 2 with the surrounding walls belonging to the property. Neubert, who owned a vine nursery in the Leipzig area that was awarded a prize by the Ministry of the Interior in 1845, had already leased wine country near Kötzschenbroda in autumn 1842 for the cultivation of rare grape varieties such as Muscatschönedel , Krachtmost (Krachmost, Gutedel ) and Black Champagne (probably Frühburgunder ). He built the Talutanlage after a devastating hailstorm in August 1861, which destroyed his Leipzig Talutanlage. At the end of the 1860s, he relocated his Leipzig vine, forest and fruit tree school to Zitzschewig in the better Lößnitz climate, since his Leipzig green spaces were rededicated by Carl Erdmann Heine through the expansion of Leipzig's western suburb . In 1872 at the latest, Neubert also acquired the Langenberg winery to the east. Neubert died in 1880 and his daughters continued to run the four-hectare family business under the name of their father.

Krapenburg received its current appearance in 1899 through extensive renovation. In addition to this date, the initials RA can be found above a stairwell window, referring to the owner at the time, the Leipzig-based winery and commercial gardener Reinhold Ackermann, who had the renovation of the manor house built in 1710 designed by the Dresden architect Oscar Wend . Ackermann had learned viticulture and wine trading in Spain and was the tenant of the wine tavern in Dresden Castle . After Ackermann's death, his unmarried daughter continued to run the estate.

The Krapenburg was badly damaged by artillery fire in World War II and was not restored until 1990.

After the property was nationalized in 1957, during the GDR, from 1958 onwards, the GDR's State Vine Research Station was operated by the Variety Office at the Agriculture Council , which existed until 2002. Today the corresponding vineyard is Krapenberg with Talutanlage under the name vines Research Institute of the State Winery at Wackerbarth with Pinot Noir farmed.

In 1944, on the upper part of the Krapenbergweg , a vineyard made up of several farm mountains east of the former Kynast winery was re-cultivated by the Radebeul town winery . This vineyard, also popularly known as Krapenberg , sometimes also called Neuer Krapenberg , had to be cleared after frost damage in 1987, whereupon it was spun off from the then VEG (Z) Weinbau Radebeul . Since then it has been cultivated by the steep slope winemakers in Zitzschewig .

It was only after the fall of the Wall that the Krapenburg was restored over several years and has belonged to a descendant of Ackermann since 1990.
