| old trainstation | Birkenbringhausen, Bahnhofstraße 12, hallway: 6, parcel: 108/16 |
The type building, completed in 1890, was built to the northeast of the town based on designs by the railway architect Hentzen. In contrast to the comparable buildings in Wetter or Niederwalgern, the two-storey railway station facing the tracks on the eaves, with a single-storey goods shed to the north, is made of sandstone. The five-axis building is emphasized on the entrance side by a single-axis central projection with an oculus in the gable field and an open chevron. A circumferential cornice divides the facade horizontally. On the track side, the building has a three-axle, single-storey extension. In 1980 the station was sold. Trains are still running, but now stop at a new stop. | 1890 |

Half-timbered house | Birkenbringhausen, Brunnenstraße 7 Location floor: 1, parcel: 175/1 |
At a bend in Brunnenstrasse and the confluence with Im hohlen Weg, a half-timbered house with a gable roof built by forester Anton Henrich Rötger before 1780, which defines the street space with three facades. While the lower two storeys on the gable facade to Brunnenstrasse are combined over a flat sandstone base in a multi-storey construction, on the eaves side the first storey rises above a ground floor made of red sandstone. The upper storey and gable protrude slightly over a beam zone with a simply profiled threshold and rounded filler timber. The upper floor is made up of two different components, the thresholds of which are slightly offset on the eaves side. The strut figures of both components are also designed differently. The ground floor and upper floor facing Brunnenstrasse are provided with widely spread struts, head angle timbers and partially opposing footbands on collar and corner posts, which on the upper floor are carved with a round bar profile that ends in volutes. The upper floor at the back, on the other hand, has male figures with neck bolts. | around 1780 |

Former forge | Birkenbringhausen, Buchwaldstraße 2 Location hallway: 1, parcel: 74/13 |
The upper floor, which is closed off by a gable roof and made of structural framework with floor-to-ceiling struts on the corner posts, rises above a flat ashlar plinth and a solidly bricked ground floor. The house, which is accessible from the courtyard on the eaves side and the gable end of which characterizes the confluence of Buchwaldstraße and Behringerstraße, only has iron lattice windows on the ground floor, which are very large towards the front of the street, but only small in size above the lower area to the rear. On the gable side, the otherwise plastered ground floor shows red sandstone blocks. The forge was run by Georg Heinrich Karl until 1980. |

Oberdorf | Birkenbringhausen, total area 1 location |
The original core of Birkenbringhausen is the upper village and the houses around the church. Only in a later expansion phase did the one-sided development take place along the path to Wiesenfeld, which was followed by another settlement on this path in the 19th century. The area below the Bornrain, the connecting piece to the Unterdorf, was partly built on. In 1783 there were 54 houses in Birkenbringhausen. From 1838 the bad roads were turned into roads. According to a description from 1859, the construction of the houses is multi-storey, mostly house, barn and stables are under one roof. The houses are covered with bricks, but also 31 with straw. A major fire in 1868 destroyed the school and twelve courtyards, and the church was also on fire. The entire complex comprises a large part of the development south of the church, the Behringerstraße, which runs in a wide arc from east to south, and the buildings at the confluence of Buchwaldstraße and Kirchweg. These are mostly gable-independent, two-storey half-timbered houses from the 19th century, with barns closing off the courtyard at the rear, as well as residential and farm buildings. |

Unterdorf | Birkenbringhausen, total area 2 location |
The expansion of the lower village takes place at the beginning of the 17th century as an extension of the upper village. In the 18th century, the vacant lots in the lower village are closed. Today, the entire complex extends on both sides of Brunnenstrasse, which runs in an arch from north to west, and of Im hohlen Weg, which runs parallel in an east-west direction. Half-timbered rides of various sizes with barns and some single houses from the 18th and 19th centuries have been preserved on plots that differ greatly in size and shape. The gable and eaves, two-storey half-timbered buildings with gable roofs alternate. The small-scale development still characterizes the eastern outskirts of Birkenbringhausen today. The former cemetery, located on the Trift, is also part of the monument scope, as its elevated location with old trees on Bahnhofstrasse delimits the entire complex from the main street. |

| Hatzbachmühle | Birkenbringhausen, Hatzbachmühle 1, Franzheib, In der Hute, Salbach Hallway: 3, parcel: 100 / 10.13.14 / 2.172 / 16.20 / 3 |
As early as the end of the Middle Ages, there was a mill property under the name Kesselmühle at the site of the later Hatzbachmühle, which was abandoned in the course of the 15th century. The mill, which was put back into operation around 1535, belonged to the community of Haine until well into the 19th century and was operated for several centuries by a miller family who left the mill in 1872 and sold it to Heinrich Caspar Hofmann, who owned the mill, which had been in operation since 1875 Municipality of Birkenbringhausen belongs, continued to operate. Today's large-volume mill buildings were probably built under the aegis of this owner. The core of the representative courtyard, which is closed on three sides, is a three-storey, clad half-timbered mill building that still has an undershot mill wheel today. In the north and east the courtyard is closed off by a stable and barn building, the ground floors of which are bricked in rubble. The upper floors show a simple constructive half-timbered structure from the late 19th century. The most conspicuous part of the courtyard is the half-timbered house built in the south facing the courtyard. The two-storey building shows a dense half-timbered structure with steep man figures on the corner and collar studs as well as additional supports in the parapets of the windows, which are regularly arranged in pairs except in the door axis. The door axis of the house, which is carved up by floor with a slight overhang of the upper floor, is also emphasized by a gabled dwarf house. The right-hand part of the ground floor is occupied by a small stable, which is solidly made of greywacke with corner blocks and window frames made of red sandstone. | 1535 |

Two-storey half-timbered house | Birkenbringhausen, Im Hohlen Weg 2 Location corridor: 1, parcel: 182/2 |
A two-storey half-timbered house with a half-hipped roof over a sandstone base to compensate for the rise in the terrain, which was built in 1834 by Johannes Marburger and his wife Helene, is located on the gable and defines the confluence area on Bahnhofstrasse. Trimmed without overhangs in a multi-storey construction, the building is accessed on the eaves side via an open staircase that has recently been built over with a vestibule. The regular framework, which is completely slated on the gable side, is stiffened by storey-high struts. | 1834 |

Protestant church | Birkenbringhausen, Kirchring 1 corridor: 1, parcel: 31/1 |
The first evidence of the already older parish of Birkenbringhausen comes from the year 1286. At that time the village had its own pastor and church. The new Gothic choir tower church was built on the remains of this Romanesque church between 1350 and 1400, the tower of which has been preserved to this day. The church, which belonged to the Johanniterkommende in Wiesenfeld as a secular patron, was subordinate to the Lords of Hatzfeld, who transferred this patronage to the Johanniter in 1503. As the new church lords, they had the church provided with a new ribbed vault, the last yoke of which is still present in the choir tower. After the Reformation and the dissolution of the Johanniterkommende in Wiesenfeld, the patronage reverts to the Lords of Hatzfeld. In terms of the church, the parish has been part of Bottendorf since the 18th century at the latest. The Gothic church building continued to be used from the 16th century until the early 20th century. Repairs had to be carried out again and again in the course of the 17th and 18th centuries, but the community's financial means were never enough for a new building. However, since the community gradually grew after 1800, the nave had to be extended in 1838. After the enlarged church burned down partially in a fire in 1868, renewed considerations arose about a new church. However, it was not until 1934 that the plans took concrete shape. The architect Karl Rumpf (1885–1968), who was commissioned with the planning, first made a survey of the existing building and, based on these plans, developed his ideas for a new building, which was carried out by 1936. The nave was completely renewed, but the tower was retained as a choir tower. The Gothic tower, illuminated by a two-lane lancet window with a three-pass, with its broad front made of different sized hand blocks and offset corner blocks, stands out clearly from the new masonry. The two upper floors of the tower were only added in 1934 and crowned with a hipped roof with a pointed roof turret. The simple nave, designed as a simple hall building, connects directly and is lit in the north only through small windows and in the south through very high, sandstone-framed windows. The main entrance with a flat pointed arch and simple tympanum is located opposite the tower in the west.
The hall, which is simple on the inside, is covered by a beamed ceiling that is flat on the outside and supported by two beams, and on the inside it is designed as a box-like vaulted concrete barrel. On the north and west side there is a gallery resting on baluster-like bulging and whorled stands, the west side of which houses the organ with a simple prospect. The square tower choir opens behind a triumphal arch flanked by the pulpit, in the middle of which the simple block-like cafeteria rises. The chancel is covered by a high ribbed vault rising on two sides above masked consoles, the round keystone of which shows a St. John's cross resting on a flower base. On both sides there is a Gothic sacrament niche with a keel arch and a later one with a profiled framed sacrament niche. The Gothic window is provided with younger lead glazing, which shows stations from the life of Jesus from his birth to the Ascension. The crucifix, known far beyond the borders of the region and dated to 1170, has been in the University Museum in Marburg since the church was rebuilt. |

Tower of the old church | Bottendorf, Dorfstrasse 3, hallway: 8, parcel: 55/1 |
Around 1250 the first church with a high square tower and a simple single nave was built on the western edge of the village of Bottendorf. The nave in particular was badly damaged in the Thirty Years' War and was only repaired poorly, so that in 1783 the nave was replaced by a new building. This new building was very dilapidated after the Second World War and was completely demolished in 1967 and replaced by the current polygonal structure. Only the medieval tower with its round arched door, lateral, loopholed windows and two round-arched sound openings changed in 1967 in the upper area directly below the renewed eaves, on which a very steep tent roof rises today. | around 1250 |

| Residential building | Bottendorf, Dorfstraße 6, hallway: 8, parcel: 61 |
In the rear area of the deep parcel, on the street side, a large courtyard is left free, a house built in 1819 with a barn connected to the first parallel. The buildings, which were formerly separated by a narrow lane, were connected by an intermediate building in the early 20th century, and the barn was also provided with a covered wagon depot. The barn and house rise above flat stone plinths and are tiled up by floor. The high ground floor of the barn is still stiffened with man figures, the same high ground floor of the house has recently been rebuilt. The flatter upper floors rise above wide entablature zones with profiled thresholds and grooved beam heads on the barn, the corner and collar posts of which are stiffened with figures of men. The corner posts of the barn are also carved with beads rolled up at the ends, those of the house with beads that end in tendrils. On the ground floor of the house and the barn there are the following inscriptions, which are only partially legible on the barn: "Misgust of the people cannot harm us, what God grants me that must be advised if the envy burned like the fire, the wood would not be so expensive. With God's help and blessing and hard work of the carpenters, this building is ready. God will protect it from hail and fire with a blessing to cover the whole country - The master carpenter true Christoph Wagener Ano Domine MDCCCXVIIII "" Jacob Moller and Anna Dorredea bored Ensten his wife trusted God and built this house in 1819 on June 21 ". | 1819 |

| Old school house | Bottendorf, Dorfstraße 7, hallway: 8, parcel: 52 |
The oldest school building in Bottendorf became too small for the growing town in the early 19th century and it was decided to build a new building in 1818. After completion in 1820, it served as a school until 1871 and then as a teacher's apartment. After the school was rebuilt in 1907, it was partly used by the community and partly rented out as an apartment. The two-storey building, erected in 1820, rises above a flat base, which is now clad, and shows a regular half-timbered structure that is trimmed down each floor. Double-locked on the ground floor and single-locked on the upper floor, it is stiffened by flat, storey-high struts. The floors are optically separated by a wide, slightly protruding beam zone with rounded filler timber. On the frame of the ground floor there is the following inscription: "Peter ... 2 + 4 Feed the flock of Christ that is commanded to you and see not being forced but willing from the heart, not for the sake of shameful gain, but from the heart not as those who rule over the people but will Role models of the herd V3 This is how you will appear when the Arch Shepherd will receive the incorruptible crown of honor MDCCCXX ". On the gable end there is another inscription: "God's word and Luther's teaching will pass me by and never again - the carpenters were Jacob (...) and Christoef Wagener - preacher Solomon B 5 V 1 keep your feet when you go to God's house and come to that You hear ". | 1818/1820 |

| school | Bottendorf, Frankenberger Straße 11 hallway: 10, parcel: 90/6 |
In 1907 the community of Bottendorf had a new, larger school built on Frankenberger Straße north of the village. The large-volume, plastered brick building rises above a flat stone plinth and is provided on the courtyard side with a wide risalit with a half-timbered gable and half-hipped roof. The corners of the building are accentuated with a color-contrasting corner block and the windows have profiled sandstone reveals, which are additionally decorated with flat arches and large keystones on the ground floor on the street side. The main structure is also provided with slightly overhanging half-timbered gables on both sides, which are closed with a half-hipped roof. In the middle of the street facade, an inscription plaque was placed with the following text: "School Bottendorf built in 1907".

| Historic town center | Bottendorf, entire facility 1 | The historic center of Bottendorf stretches along Dorfstrasse between Wolkersdorfer Strasse and the transition over the Nemphe and its extension - Am Sand - beyond the Nemphe to the intersection of the streets Am Sand, Am Berg, Roter Graben and Urbachstrasse, with buildings at the eastern end of the village. Smaller roads were built on both sides of this main axis that opened up the parcels of smaller farms that stretch along the Nemphe. These paths, Bachweg, Rotlehm, Am Sand, together with the wider main axis, form the historical center of Bottendorf. The irregular, small building blocks show a very small-scale structure of densely built-up courtyards, mostly as single houses, more rarely in the form of small hooked courtyards. Larger courtyards can only be found on the outskirts of the village, on Dorfstrasse opposite the church, on Rotlehm and at the beginning of Urbachstrasse. Today's buildings, which are still often half-timbered, come from the end of the 18th century in their oldest parts, but are mostly new buildings from the first half of the 19th century. |

| Wolkersdorfer Strasse I. | Bottendorf, entire facility 2 | On the southern outskirts of Bottendorf, three court rides were built along Wolkersdorfer Straße in the second half of the 19th century, which were closed off by residential houses facing the street. The staggered, two-storey buildings rise above almost storey-high broken or stone plinths and, as far as they are not clad, show timber-framed timber-framing with man figures and wide entablature zones. The group of buildings that marks the southern exit of the town is completed by the large-volume half-timbered barns on Hofreite Friedhofsweg 1 on the opposite side of the street. |

| Wolkersdorfer Strasse II | Bottendorf, entire facility 3 | On the western side of Wolkersdorfer Straße, three differently designed court rides were built around 1912, which together enclose a wide courtyard. The houses at numbers 14 and 18 form the side of the wide courtyard, while the long barn at number 18 serves as the rear closure, the extension of which forms the house at number 16. |
760512 |

| Wolkersdorfer Strasse III | Bottendorf, entire facility 4 | Halfway between Bottendorf and Wolkersdorf, four half-timbered houses were built after 1912. The building group consists of two eaves and two gable, alternately arranged, single-storey buildings on broken stone plinths of different heights, which become flatter as the terrain increases towards Wolkersdorf. The half-timbering of the historicist assembly shows different decorative forms with man figures on the corner and collar posts as well as St. Andrew's crosses in the window parapets. |

| Former domain Wolkersdorf | Bottendorf, entire facility 5 | In the 13th century, the von Helfenberg family, who had their ancestral seat near Wolfhagen, appeared in the Frankenberg area. Rudolf von Helfenberg had a first fortified house built in Wolkersdorf around 1250, the appearance of which is no longer known. Around 1280 Johann von Helfenberg had the castle reinforced with a bridge and a gatehouse. At the beginning of the 14th century, Eckhard von Helfenberg had assigned half the village of Wolkersdorf to the Landgrave of Hesse as a fief. In 1328 Eckhard's sons had to sell half of their estates to Friedrich von Bicken, the dean of Kesterburg, who gave his new acquisition to the Landgrave of Hesse as a fief. In 1389 the landgrave was able to buy half of it from Friedrich II von Bicken. After the von Helfenberg family's line of Upper Hesse died out, the heir Rudolf V von Helfenberg zu Wolfhagen sold the rest of his holdings in Wolkersdorf to Landgrave Hermann II of Hesse in 1409. After the acquisition of the county of Ziegenhain in 1450, the expansion of Wolkersdorf gradually began to become the center of Hessian rule. Since 1480 the master builder Hans Jacob von Ettlingen was busy with the expansion of the castle. A fortified house was built according to the basic scheme of the Hessenstein with two residential buildings flanking a walled courtyard. This central complex was also surrounded by a four-tower curtain wall. After the fire in Frankenberg in 1476, the Hessian officials of the Frankenberg office took up residence here from the end of the 15th century. Up until the 17th century, a large farm yard was built north of the castle, the basic structure of which can still be seen in the Wolkersdorf yard today. During the Hessian War between 1641 and 1648, the castle was conquered several times by troops of the warring parties and was largely devastated at the end of the Thirty Years' War. In the later 17th and 18th centuries, Wolkersdorf continued to be operated as a manorial domain and leased to various "conductors". In order to finance the war and the keeping of court, Jerome Napoleon had the inventory and the Wolkersdorf Castle sold. The buildings were demolished by the Bottendorf carpenter Conrad Nolte in 1813 and the timbers were used in various new buildings. Although the elector declared the domain sales invalid after 1816, the castle had disappeared except for the farmyard. The domain was finally dissolved in 1912. Today's buildings on the Wolkersdorf farm were mostly built in the decades after the palace was sold to private owners. The oldest buildings are the elongated, two-storey, completely slated, half-timbered house facing the courtyard at No. 75/77, a large-volume barn made of large ashlar blocks, probably built in the middle of the 19th century, belonging to No. 77 and arranged at right angles to it. which was probably built from the remains of the castle, as well as the courtyard complex of No. 81, which closes off the entire courtyard to the south-west. The other residential and farm buildings - partly made of half-timbered, partly made of bricks - were built in the course of the later 19th century based on the earlier ones The building of the farmyard standing there was erected and, together with the older ones, form a complete courtyard development, which still gives an impression of the size and importance of the lordly domain of Wolkersdorf. | 13th and 14th centuries |

| Mill building of the Linnermühle | Bottendorf, Linnermühle 3 floor: 6, parcel: 100/1 |
The Linnermühle between Bottendorf and Willersdorf, first mentioned in 1215, belonged to the Haina monastery at that time. The mill building of the former stately mill was built in 1799 for the miller Johann Michael Groß and his wife Catharina Elisabeth born Hasenzahl by the Bottendorf master carpenter Conrad Feisel. With the transfer of the mill to a Jew from Frankenberg in 1836, the mill gradually lost its importance. Mill operations have been shut down for decades. Today's house rises as a two-storey, storey-trimmed half-timbered construction over a stepped stone plinth that is almost storey-high in the left area and shows a regular structure, simply locked on the ground floor, with almost storey-high struts. Above a wide entablature zone with grooved beam heads, profiled filler timber and a threshold, the structure on the upper floor is double-locked and stiffened with widely spread man figures on the collar posts. The corner posts are also carved with dewsticks that end in floral capitals. On the frame of the ground floor of the house, which was renovated in 1983, there is the following inscription: "The wood is rare and expensive, that's why we build the mill and the house together, the master carpenter is Conrad Feisel". The mill, located at a bend in the Cold Water Valley around the "Linnerberg" (375.2 m), has the remains of the tower hill of the Linne Castle approx. 60 m south . | 1799 |

| Single house on the eaves | Bottendorf, Rotlehm 13 hallway: 8, parcel: 159 |
A single house built on an almost square floor plan to expand the kinking street like a square. The half-timbered house, which is narrow for a single house, rises above an almost floor-high, plastered base in the living area. The dense half-timbered structure of the house, which is timbered by storey, is stiffened on corner and collar posts with man figures, and on the collar posts on the ground floor with three-quarter struts. The floor separation emphasizes a wide entablature zone with a slightly protruding, profiled upper floor threshold, which is combed over the rounded, grooved beam heads. In the frame of the first floor there is the following inscription: "I will ask of God, for my own reason, that he would shower us with blessings every hour of the whole place and country - Since all council and hour rule God's hands - The house is mine and yet not whoever comes after me will be the same Conrad Norde the 15th Mey Anno 1800 ".

| A house | Bottendorf, Urbachstrasse 1, Urbachstrasse 3, hallway: 8, parcel: 205.206 |
Today's Einhaus, built on the eaves at the beginning of Urbachstrasse, was originally made up of three parts under one roof. The front, three-zone part extends to the rear end of the outside staircase, which has been built over since the early 20th century, and shows two different half-timbered structures above a stone base of different heights. The two rear zones, dating from the original construction time in 1771, are decorated by floor with a slight overhang of the upper floor. The simply locked construction is stiffened with man figures on the corner posts and particularly emphasized by the wide beam zone with rounded filler timber and beveled threshold. The front zone comprising three containers was completely replaced at the end of the 19th century. The construction, which is based on the older building, has been tiled in storeys with a slight overhang of the storeys, and shows here and on the gable only a simple structural framework, which is stiffened with storey-high struts and shortened in the lower area by brickwork on the base. On the first floor threshold in the gable is the following inscription: "Ubi Amor Pax - Ubi Pax Deus - Ubi Deus nulla cura". The two parts of the stable, now listed under number 3, also show different half-timbered constructions. The stable area directly adjoining the living area (No. 1) was built at the same time as the front part and is therefore similarly decorated. On the lintel of the stable door there is the following inscription: "Got mit uns Amen Nicolaus Schmit and Anna Maria Anno 1771 April 24th". The rear part with its two gate entrances was only added in the 19th century. | 1771 |

The left part of the building, erected in 1832, shows a dense half-timbered structure with three-quarter struts on the ground floor and figures of men on the corner posts of the upper floor as well as diagonal struts in the parapets of the former window openings. A wide entablature zone with a slight overhang, grooved beam heads, rounded filler timber and a profiled upper floor threshold separates the two full floors. On the frame of the first floor there is the following inscription: "You are my confidence, Lord. Lord, my hope from my youth - Ps. 71 verse 5. The master carpenter was Jacob Feisel zu Bottendorf. God alone honors in 1832." The right part of the building was added only a little later in almost the same half-timbered form, with the framework here reinforced by storey-high struts. | 1832 |

Large-volume half-timbered barn from 1794, in three construction phases, laterally delimiting a large courtyard, which was extended parallel to the first in 1810 and around 1900. The building was visually combined around 1900 with a new stone base. The timber-framed timber-framing of the two-storey building shows a regular structure stiffened with widely spread man figures on corner and collar studs with a wide entablature zone with rounded beam heads and filler wood as well as a profiled threshold on the slightly overhanging upper floor. The following inscription can be found on the ground floor frame: "Lord You want to be gracious and give your blessing that we will keep it in good condition, also consider this that we need it to praise your - Giving mildly to the poor so that our ... most of our worries will come to ... e cradle Life 1794 - This building by Anna Catharina Wagenerin and her son Jacob Wagener - The master was Jacob Feisel Bottendorf on April 13th 1810 ". | 1794 |

| Half-timbered house | Bottendorf, Wolkersdorfer Straße 11 hallway: 8, parcel: 83/2 |
Outside of the village on the road to Wolkersdorf, using older half-timbered parts from the 18th century, in the second half of the 19th century, a two-storey half-timbered house was built on the eaves facing the street. The building rises above a basement in polygonal masonry with corner blocks in sandstone, which is provided with a rolled layer of bricks as the upper end. Only the younger, right-hand part of the building still has a plinth made entirely of sandstone. The timber-framed timber framing on the left side shows a strong, lug-supported overhang of the upper floor gable and a wide entablature zone with rounded beam heads and filler wood up to the center of the building. In the right part of the building, a threshold-frame construction with embedded ceiling beams separates the floors. The frequent renovations reveal a multitude of different strut figures, from a man figure on the left upper floor corner post to very oblique, sometimes still curved three-quarter struts to almost storey-high struts. In the early 20th century, a half-timbered vestibule was built over the house's single flight of stairs. | 2nd half of the 19th century |

|
| Courtyard | Bottendorf, Wolkersdorfer Straße 64, hallway: 13, parcel: 18/4 |
Across from the Wolkersdorf farm, a large courtyard was built in 1912 with three half-timbered barns placed over a corner, which enclose a courtyard at the sides and back. The large courtyard is optically closed off from the street by the centrally arranged residential building. The barns, built on sandstone plinths, provided with half-timbered upper storeys, are closed off with high mansard roofs and look far into the street space of Wolkersdorfer Straße. The house, built on a square floor plan, also has a stone base, the plastered full floor is also emphasized by corner blocks and sandstone reveals on the windows. A high mansard roof with dormers and a half-timbered gable on the street side on the left side of the building forms the upper end of the house, which was built in the style of the local style. | 1912 |

| Forester's house | Bottendorf, Wolkersdorfer Straße 68 Floor: 14, Parcel: 7/2 |
To the south of the village, slightly set back from the street area of the road to Ernsthausen, the forester's house was built in 1886 on a T-shaped floor plan. Like all forest houses from that time, it consists of a single-storey stable, which has now been converted for residential purposes, and a two-storey residential house, which is in front of the stable like a head building. Both parts of the building rise above high base zones made of natural stone. The stable and the ground floor were built in brickwork, regularly divided by segment-arched windows and are now smoothly plastered. The slightly overhanging upper floor of the house was built as a half-timbered construction and is now completely clad. Both the residential building and the former stable, which has a boarded-up jamb floor, are covered with flat gable roofs with overhanging verges. | 1886 |

Two residential houses combined under an elongated saddle roof form the eastern end of the Wolkersdorf estate. A two-story, fully slated framework rises above a flat base, which, through the overhang of the upper floor and the low floor heights, refers the building to a construction period in the late 18th century and therefore probably from the time of Wolkersdorf as a sovereign domain. | Late 18th century |

| Former forest office | Bottendorf, Wolkersdorfer Straße 81, hallway: 12, parcel: 35/4 |
After the division of the manorial domain Wolkersdorf in the early 19th century, a forestry office was built south of the driveway to the former farm yard in the second half of the 19th century. A two-storey half-timbered house with half-timbered barns connected to the ridge parallel to the ridge was built towards the driveway. The eight-axis, slated house rises above a flat stone base and is covered by a steep gable roof. The only decoration is the two-winged entrance door with rounded arched glass fields and diamond-coated parapet fields, above which a deer antler is attached. To the west of the residential building is a two-storey barn with a slightly eccentric passage, which is lined up by storeys and whose simple half-timbered construction is stiffened with inclined, storey-high struts that span several bundles. The western end is a two-storey, post-and-beam barn from around 1900. | Beginning of the 19th century |

| Half-timbered house on the eaves | Ernsthausen, Bergstraße 6b hallway: 18, parcel: 156/3 |
Large-volume, two-storey half-timbered house facing Bergstrasse on a high, stepped base. The lavishly designed house has a high basement plinth made of layered brickwork stones. To the right of the entrance is a complete basement, which was probably formerly used as a stable and was completely replaced by brickwork in the early 20th century. The half-timbered structure is tiled up by floor and shows man figures on corner and collar posts on the first and second floors. The house, built in the second half of the 18th century, has an abundance of different decorative shapes. The center of the building on the upper floor is emphasized with a man figure, which is also decorated with a fan rosette and tendril carvings. The wide entablature zone shows the rare construction form with ceiling beams combed in the frame and completely lined upstairs threshold, which makes the otherwise usual filler wood superfluous. In addition, the beam heads are grooved and the threshold is decorated on the underside with a frieze and in the middle with an egg stick. In addition, the corner posts are provided with almost fully plastic dew bars. | 2nd half of the 18th century |

| Aggregate Bruchmühle | Ernsthausen, Bruchweg 4, Bruchwiesen floor: 10, parcel: 206.36 |
The construction of the mill southeast of the village was approved by the landgrave in 1613. In the years after the end of the Thirty Years' War, the Bruchmühle became the village's preferred grinding place. After a long dispute over ownership of the mill, it was awarded to the Münchhausen community in what is now the Marburg-Biedenkopf district in 1659. However, the dispute over ownership continued unabated in the following decades and was finally decided in favor of the community of Ernsthausen in 1780. The current mill building was rebuilt in 1879 and operated as a mill until 1982.
Today's Bruchmühle ensemble consists of a three-storey half-timbered mill building with an attached residential building, which has recently been largely rebuilt, and a half-timbered stable placed across the corner. The end of the courtyard is a large-volume barn built partly in half-timbered and partly in brickwork. All buildings show a simple half-timbered structure from the time of construction with steep storey-high struts and floor-by-storey carpentry. |

| Forester's house | Ernsthausen, book page hallway: 19, parcel: 1/5 |
In contrast to the other forester's houses built by the Prussian forest administration in the last decade of the 19th century, the forester's house in Ernsthausen does not have the basic structure of a front building with an attached single-storey barn. The forester's house was built as a single-storey house made of plastered brickwork over a flat stone base. The beginning of the living area with segmented arched windows is marked by a risalit-like transept with a boarded half-timbered gable. The upper end of the building is a flat truss storey with a gable roof protruding far over the eaves and verge. | Late 19th century |

After an inheritance was divided in 1824, an initially gable-front barn was built on the property, the lower floors of which were combined in a column construction and a second floor was added. The constructive framework is stiffened with different struts, some of which form male figures. In the second half of the 19th century, the barn was given eaves extensions along the street on both sides as narrow, high half-timbered structures with steep storey-high struts, which, together with the barn, optically close off the street space of Darmstädter Straße in this area. | around 1824 |

Shortly after the turn of the 20th century, a house built in historicizing forms. The gable, two-storey building rises above a flat stone plinth and was built as a brick building on the ground floor. The three-axis façade facing the street and five-axis on the eaves side is only structured by the segment-arched windows with round shaped brick frames and flat brick archivolts. The upper floor, which is flush with it, shows a constructive framework with steep, storey-high struts and St. Andrew's crosses in the window parapets. Towards the street, it is closed off by a half-timbered gable with a protruding verge and an open space on carved lugs. | Beginning of the 20th century |

| Half-timbered house | Ernsthausen, the corner 3 hall: 18, parcel: 81/2 |
Half-timbered house built in 1800, which was expanded into a hooked courtyard around 1900 by adding a stable. The two-storey half-timbered house with its dense half-timbered structure rises above a flat stone base. On the high ground floor there is a constructive structure with figures of men on the corner posts and head angle wood on the central entrance door. The former barn door has now been replaced by a window. The slightly overhanging upper floor shows a regular framework with man figures on all corner and collar posts. The formerly smaller-scale windowing can still be read from several window openings that are now closed. The building has several inscriptions: Lintel: "Christof Rott and Eva Margaretha his house wife as well as the all-father Hermann Imhof they trusted God and built this house in 1800 on the first day of May - carpenter was ..." Rähminschrift: "Oh how beautiful joy rooms are up in God's house we should always push because we know that this house cannot go any longer ... " | 1800 |

| Historic town center | Ernsthausen, complete system 1 | The settlement core of the village is formed by an almost square building block, enclosed by Darmstädter Straße, Bergstraße, Oberstraße and Kirchstraße, with an irregular plot of land. Even today, differently tailored court rides from the 19th century, some of which are set back into the depths of the block, shape the look of the village center. The landgrave's estate, which was dissolved in 1810, was probably also located here. The former western end of the village was the Wasen, a wide street that has since been made smaller by development from the west and only in its eastern part is congruent with Bergstrasse and Oberstrasse. Since Ernsthausen quickly regained importance after the end of the Thirty Years War, the settlement soon grew beyond this core. Even the 52 houses that were counted in 1696 found no more space. By 1737 the village had grown to 97 houses, which started in the northeast and stretched to the Senkelbach and in the southeast of the village between the church and today's Marburger Strasse formed a second, smaller settlement core. In the following years, individual farmsteads also emerged on the road from Marburg to Wolkersdorf, which ran along the south-eastern edge of the village. Settling there became more attractive, especially after they were chaused between 1868 and 1875. Around 1900 houses for immigrants from the cities in the surrounding area were built on Mühlrain and Schulstrasse, and townhouses were built. However, due to the expansion of the federal highway in 1980, entire rows of houses along Marburger Strasse were demolished. Between 1940 and 1988 28 farms disappeared. The structure of the village center has largely been preserved to this day. Despite some new buildings, some of which were not to scale, a large number of differently structured courtyards, where possible designed as hooked courtyards, with half-timbered houses from the late 18th and mostly 19th centuries, characterize the townscape. |

On October 10, 1925, a memorial erected by the community in honor of those who fell in the First World War was inaugurated at Ernsthausen's cemetery. The monument, made according to plans by the Sarnau sculptor Johannes Reinhard, rises on a high sandstone plinth with a three-tiered base, an aedicule with corner pillars and a festoon in the middle under a high entablature with standard symbols. It shows a kneeling soldier who has taken off his helmet for prayer and is holding a laurel wreath. On the front there is the following inscription: "Dedicated to our heroes who fell for the fatherland by the home community", on the back it reads: "Stand still and fold your hands in prayer! They quarreled, they suffered for home and people, they brought their lives to life Sacrifice for you. " | 1925 |

Protestant church | Ernsthausen, Kirchstraße 7, near the church hall: 18, parcel: 75 / 5.76 |
The parish of Ernsthausen was parish into the parish of Münchhausen since the Middle Ages. The pastor from Münchhausen had to preach in Ernsthausen every two weeks. A first Lord's Supper in the Ernsthausen Church is attested to in 1640, although the first church building can be assumed to have been in the 15th or early 16th century. This previous church had a massive choir and a half-timbered nave, with the choir and nave being two-story and a third floor above the nave as a fruit floor. In 1653 the church received new galleries, in 1676 its own male gallery, and in 1699 a new pulpit. Since the 18th century, major repairs had to be made to the church, so that the parish had been thinking about building the church from scratch since 1770. However, it was more than a century before this project was implemented. It was not until 1911 that the old church was finally demolished and replaced by a completely new building according to plans by the Marburg architect Pesch by 1913. Only a few spoils from the old church were included in the new building, so the organ made by Peter Dickel from Treisbach in 1890 and a font from 1645 have been preserved. Four old tombstones were placed on the outside wall of the church. In 1965 the church received a new pulpit and in 1978 a new spire. The hall building, which is simple on the outside, has a three-eighth closure in the east, which comprises a square four-storey tower with a slate bell storey and a pointed, octagonal spire at the northeast corner. The nave is illuminated through high, arched windows in the north and four windows of the same kind on the long south side. The west side with the arched entrance consisting of two arched doors is provided with two round oculi on the upper floor. The upper end of the building is formed by a steep gable roof, hipped in the east, over a slated gable in the west. The sober interior is structured by a baluster-like gallery resting on the north and west, with carved head angle wood, with a coffered parapet over a wide acanthus frieze. The flat ceiling above the gallery is designed as a plank-beam ceiling and in the rest of the room as a board ceiling with laid-on profiles in the form of a cassette with an octagonal central field, which represents the Last Supper. The eastern end is formed by a slightly raised chancel, visually separated from the nave by a round-arched triumphal arch, with a round barrel vault with a six-eighth barrel vault in the east with painted coffering, into which a stab cap with a laurel wreath surrounded by dense tendrils cuts in the south. Above the simple altar canteen, the vault was designed with a scallop shell adorned with lilies and provided with a stylized sun disk. On the baptismal font resting on a column-like foot there is the following inscription: “Dissen Dauf Stein, Johan Nöllen vereret these churches to werdem Gedechnüs - 1645”. | before 1640 |

The building, designed in historicizing forms, rises above a flat stone plinth, is trimmed floor by floor and is emphasized on the eaves side by a central, two-axis dwarf house with half-timbered gable and crooked hip. The framework of the four-axis street facade shows a wealth of historicizing framework forms. For example, corner and collar stands are stiffened with man figures and the window parapets are particularly emphasized with corner timber and diamond fillings. The wide entablature zone shows slightly protruding, grooved beam heads. The upper end is formed by a steep, hipped roof with wide protruding verges. | Beginning of the 20th century |

| Aggregate Nikolausmühle | Ernsthausen, Nikolausmühle 2 hallway: 5, parcel: 37 |
After the old Wiesenfeld mill collapsed in 1700, a new mill was built in 1712 by the conductor of the Wiesenfeld dairy under the name of Nikolausmühle. This mill remained in Wiesenfelder's possession over the centuries and was not added to the Ernsthausen community until 1916. It remained in operation as a mill until the 1960s. The mill wheel was still there in 1988, but it was broken off soon after. The entire complex consists of the former mill house, a directly adjoining, elongated, younger remise, at the end of which is a half-timbered barn. Another half-timbered barn forms the end of today's courtyard. Today, the mill building is a fully slated, two-storey half-timbered building on a high stone plinth and essentially comes from the original construction period after 1712. The two barns built in the course of the 18th century both show a dense half-timbered structure made of strongly dimensioned wood and flat three-quarter struts. The older of the two barns is built on two floors in half-timbered houses and is decorated by floor with a larger upper floor overhang. Their corner posts are provided with three-quarter struts, but the middle posts still have an ancient stiffening with base angle wood. The younger of the two barns on the ground floor consists of layered brickwork, above which a half-timbered floor rises with a dense structure and figures of men on the corner posts. | 1712 |

| school | Ernsthausen, Schulstrasse 5, hallway: 18, parcel: 64/3 |
In 1840 the carpenter Jesberg from Röddenau built the first school in Ernsthausen. Due to the constantly increasing number of pupils, an extension had to be built in 1870 and in 1927 it was decided to build a new school on the outskirts. After the completion of the new building in 1928, the old school was demolished in 1934.
According to the plans of the Frankenberg architect Melzer, a two-storey brick building was built with a gym and school yard at the rear. On the street side, the new building shows itself over a flat stone plinth in a simple plaster look with a high nine-axis ground floor, which is accessed in the middle through a door with stone walls. The upper floor is lower and is lit by nine windows connected to a band by a continuous parapet. A gable roof with a small, central dwarf house and dormers forms the upper end. At the rear, the school building has a high, arched portico in front of the drawn-in ground floor. A segmental arcade in front of the single-storey changing rooms connects the school with the gym, a single-storey, plastered building with completely windowed windows on the eaves side. |

Atonement cross on the highway between Wiesenfeld and Birkenbringhausen, which was set up by the perpetrator as a punishment for killing a shepherd. Since this type of punishment was abolished with the new legal order of Carolina under Charles V, the cross must have been erected before 1533. It was originally placed 30 m away in a field and was only moved to its current location at the beginning of the 20th century. | before 1533 |

| Complete system of the historic town center | Wiesenfeld, entire complex of the historic town center | The core of the entire complex is formed by the medieval church of the Johanniter, from which the planned development of the place started. Like the other colonist villages, the first courtyards were built along a straight street, Landgraf-Karl-Straße, which begins in the south behind the still existing building of the commandery and ends in the north at a small square where the community had the school built in 1838 . After more settlers arrived in 1755, new farms were built along Hugenottenstrasse and the eastern part of Johanniterstrasse. The historic town center grew until around 1800, as it can still be seen today with its half-timbered courtyards from the late 18th and early 19th centuries. |

No.), Vehicle administration (Steinweg no.), Schanzhäuschen, warehouse ( Waldstrasse no.), Halle (Südstrasse 7). In May 1936 the Luftwaffe began construction work on one of its secret armaments projects in the forest above Wiesenfeld. First of all, a branch track was laid from the train station in Birkenbringhausen, via which the material for the construction of over 100 bunkers and a larger number of above-ground buildings was to take place. In deviation from a master plan that no longer exists today, the streets were laid out in such a way that as few trees as possible had to be felled in order to camouflage the area against possible air raids. The bunkers were each sunk up to half their height and, after completion, covered with earth and planted. At the south-eastern end of the facility intended for the production and storage of ammunition, the main entrance with accommodation for officers and men, the fire brigade and workshop building was created. Other functional buildings were erected along today's main road and ring road. The Reichsbahn, whose route formed the southern boundary of the area and along the course of which several unloading halls were built, which have been preserved to this day, ensured the delivery and removal of material and ammunition. In addition to the bunkers, the Muna received ten warehouses, five workhouses, 15 tool sheds, a wash house and various residential buildings. After the preliminary completion of the construction work, the Muna started operations in 1938. Bombs and anti-aircraft shells were stored, which could be fitted with detonators as required. The work was carried out by women from the surrounding areas under the supervision of Air Force members. On March 31, 1945, American troops coming from Frankenberg occupied the Muna and took the Wehrmacht prisoners. For the next two years, the site remained under American administration, which ensured that the warfare agents were removed. Since the transfer back, the Muna was released for commercial settlements from June 1947, which were soon followed by the first displaced persons. A separate place called Industriehof was created, which belonged to the municipality of Wiesenfeld. In 1994 the Industriehof was renamed and has since been called Burgwald. Although extensive new building areas have emerged on the Muna site in the last few decades, which have turned the formerly wooded area into a village, most of the buildings erected before the war are still largely in place and are used for various purposes. Only the bunkers were mostly blown up by the Americans. Although the character of the Muna has changed completely, the original structure can still be read on the streets and the buildings from the original period that still exist in many places in the village. The original buildings still preserved can be assigned to three types of construction. With the exception of the commandant's office, the residential buildings are all single-storey, simply plastered and provided with steep gable roofs over half-timbered gables. The only ornamentation of the houses built in simple Heimatstil forms are the rusticated plinths and the door reveals designed in the same way. The halls are all broad, single-storey, have concrete ceilings and are closed off by gently sloping pitched roofs. The former fire station occupies a creative intermediate position, the buildings of which were constructed similarly to the halls, but with steep pitched roofs and their building position imitate a three-sided courtyard. The only functional building designed is the parachute hall, which corresponds in its basic form to the other halls, but emphasizes the axial structure of the facades with flat wall templates made of dark bricks. |

| Half-timbered barn | Wiesenfeld, Hugenottenstraße 11 hall: 6, parcel: 65/3 |
Large-volume half-timbered barn from 1829. The two-storey half-timbered barn with the gable facing the street was extended parallel to the first on both sides towards the end of the 19th century. The younger parts show a simple, floor-to-floor timber framing structure with small wooden cross-sections and steep storey-high struts. The older middle section, which formerly housed the gate entrances that are now closed; In contrast, shows an upper storey that protrudes slightly over a wide area of entablature. Both floors of this part are stiffened at the corner posts by man figures with opposing footbands. | 1829 |

| A house | Wiesenfeld, Hugenottenstraße 14 hall: 6, parcel: 51/1 |
The core was built as a single house and moved from Todenhausen in 1755. The two-story, story-wise timbered half-timbered house reinforced with storey-high struts forms the rear end of a wide courtyard, which was expanded several times in the course of the 19th century and provided with a half-timbered barn placed at a corner. The middle, oldest part still preserves the original half-timbering with wide cross-sections and man figures on the upper floor. The former entrance to the Einhaus, which was walled up around 1900, can still be seen on the ground floor. The entire courtyard area still clearly shows the beginning of settlement and the steady growth in space requirements for living and agriculture in the course of the 19th century. | 1755 |

| Former Einhaus | Wiesenfeld, Hugenottenstraße 5 floor: 6, parcel: 63/1 |
Former single house at the southeast entrance to the village, with the eaves facade standing diagonally to the street, leaving a small courtyard free. The two-story house built in the first half of the 19th century rises on a flat stone plinth, was trimmed floor by floor and is stiffened by widely spread three-quarter struts, partly with head angle timber. The building, timbered without overhangs, formerly had a gate entrance at the left end of the eaves side, which has since been reduced to a window. On the threshold of the first floor there is the following inscription: "But I and my house want to serve the Lord - Joshua 24:15". | 1st half of the 19th century |

Evangelical Church, former Johanniterkirche St. John the Baptist | Wiesenfeld, Johanniterstraße 10, Johanniterstraße 8, hallway: 6, parcel: 40.41 |
The Kommende was probably founded by Werner I. von Wittgenstein-Battenberg after his return from the crusade in 1197, at least before 1228. After Nidda, Wiesenfeld was the second Kommende to be founded in Hesse. "Wisentfelt" is mentioned for the first time in a document in 1238; Werner's son Werner II, who had joined the Order of St. John, sealed a certificate of the sale of Battenberg property. A possibly first provisional church was followed by the construction of the preserved one around 1260. The main altar was dedicated to John the Baptist, the two side altars to Saints Nicholas and Catherine, and in 1389 there were altars to St. Mary and St. James the Elder. Ä. and SS. Cosmas and Damian added. The seat of the Kommende was moved to Frankenberg in 1392; only two or three brothers were to remain in Wiesenfeld. In 1520 the order for an altar crypt was placed with the Franciscans in Meitersdorf (wüst, near Frankenberg). After it was repealed by Landgrave Philipp von Hessen in 1527, the church was used as a barn and a landgrave's cellar, for which the vaults were removed and false ceilings were put in. In 1539 and 1546 the property was pledged and later leased as an agricultural property. Attempts to restore the monastery in the 16th and 17th centuries were unsuccessful.
After the arrival of Huguenots in 1721, a “Temple” branch of Louisendorf was built on the edge of the village. Since 1755 the Reformed congregation has used the fruit soil of the former Johanniterkirche for their services, presumably an intermediate floor. During the major interior renovation in 1765, the entire “upper part” of the church was replaced by a carpenter, presumably the wooden ceiling was put in and the roof was rebuilt, for which the sovereign had given nine tree trunks. In 1850 the parish of Wiesenfeld was changed from Louisendorf to Münchhausen (independent since 1952). An inventory by the state curator Ludwig Bickell in 1898 showed that almost all the windows had been walled up and the vaults had been replaced by a flat wooden ceiling. From 1906 to 1908 a reconstructive restoration was carried out according to plans by architect Ludwig Hofmann from Herborn and under the supervision of state curator Bickell and district administrator Riesch. Vaults were installed again, buttresses partially added, windows (the tracery were reconstructed from an existing one), floors, roof and tower spire renewed, plus the interior with new parish stalls, galleries, pulpit and an organ loft with organ case from Vogt in Korbach ( old organ) and glazing was installed by the F. Müller workshop in Quedlinburg. During a renewed renovation in 1969, the organ gallery and the parish stalls were removed and a new organ by Wolfgang Böttner installed. 1977 saw the establishment of rooms in the tower. New window glazing 1983/84. Hall building four bays in length with a polygon of five sides of an octagon, the massive tower built on the north side of the choir. The exterior of the church with stepped buttresses (on the west side across the corner), the upper ends of which are decorated with tracery and the roofs with roses, animal and human heads (almost completely renewed in 1906/08). Two-lane tracery windows with early Gothic couronnements made up of three three-passages, continuous on the south side apart from the west yoke, on the north side only in the second and third yoke from the west, the apex window in three lanes with a similar design. There are portals in both outer walls of the west yoke, in the south a narrow, on the north side a wide funnel portal in a projected and suspected wall panel as the main portal. The west side with a smaller, late Gothic portal (1511?), Integrated into the slightly protruding base; the garments formed from bars crossing one another at the apex. The rest of the gable wall was designed in 1906/08. The round window that was still in existence at that time was given a new interior division of eight sharpened passes. The gable is a new building from this period with a cornice that protrudes upward in the middle and on which there are grooved pointed arches, which are covered by a flat shield. The interior is divided into the two-bay lay section in the west and the choir area for the clergy by a transverse wall with a wide passage, which could once be closed by a wrought-iron grille. The templates on the long walls combine one belt and two diagonal ribs. They are intercepted in the choir because of the original choir stalls on consoles. Individual templates on the west wall and in the choir polygon. Simple cup capitals with coupled, hanging round arches as decoration. The vaults from 1906/08 with pear ribs designed in the same way for belts and diagonal ribs; the keystones with, among other things, frameless foliage and bird motifs. Old paved floor in the lay church, several steps lower than the outside area. The building type of the church corresponds to the Johanniterkirche in Rüdigheim near Hanau, the individual forms, on the other hand, indicate a relationship to the Marburg Elisabethkirche and the choir of the Dominican church there and the Church of Our Lady in Frankenberg. The width of the first floor of the tower, which tapers slightly in two steps, corresponds roughly to the clear width of the church. It is said to have served as an escape tower; the upper four floors were initially only accessible from the outside via an ogival entrance on the north side above the ground floor vault. Simple, ogival window openings. Slate top with a “Pecherker” protruding on the north side and a steep pyramid helmet, erected in 1906/08 instead of a very flat roof pyramid. The inside of the tower is provided with domed groin vaults on the ground and third floors, the floors are connected to each other by stairs in the wall thickness, which also explains the bulge in the east wall. A pointed arch portal with a three-line tympanum (cf. Frankenberg Liebfrauenkirche, Eichlaub there) leads from the choir into the ground floor room, which was probably originally set up as a sacristy and safe; the windows there serve more for ventilation than for lighting. The door on the east side was broken into in 1975. |

| Half-timbered house | Wiesenfeld, Johanniterstraße 7 hallway: 6, parcel: 42/2 |
Presumably built in the first half of the 18th century, representative half-timbered house on a nearly storey-high, now clad, basement. The broad, two-storey building with a high half-hipped roof facing the street is trimmed up by storeys and shows larger overhangs of the upper storey and the flat gable field. The wide entablature zones are provided with filler wood with a dew band pattern, the thresholds are profiled on the gable side. The building, which was used as the mayor's residence from 1814 to 1843, is stiffened by man figures with curved struts on the corner posts and ankle straps of different lengths on the central posts on the gable end. | 1st half of the 18th century |

| Stone house | Wiesenfeld, Johanniterstraße 9, Johanniterstraße 11 hallway: 6, parcel: 44.45 |
House built in 1507 by Johanniter Komtur Johannes Rosner. Before he came to Wiesenfeld in 1478, Rosner had already been the head of the hospital in Wildungen and in 1501 the governor of the Ordensballei Wetterau. Due to the lack of accommodation, he had this house built, which had been inhabited by two colonist families since 1755 and to which a liquor license belonged in 1849. Since 1890 it has been divided as part of an inheritance division.
The house is a single-storey quarry stone building with corner blocks that rises above a high basement. In addition to a pointed arched door from the construction period, the simple building also has sandstone-framed windows that have since been reduced in size. A gable roof with half-timbered gables forms the upper end. Latin inscriptions in the sandstone lintels of the windows translate as follows: "In the year five hundred and seven, Johannes Rosner founded this house from the ground up. He is a brother in the order of the lamb-bearer who calls on the gracious judge. May Christ join him with the living forever". |

| Half-timbered house | Wiesenfeld, Landgraf-Karl-Straße 1, hallway: 6, parcel: 43 |
Half-timbered house built in 1711 as the estate manager's apartment, which forms the first parallel extension of the house at 7 Johanniterstraße. The large-volume building rises above an almost storey-high rubble stone plinth, which houses a vaulted cellar from the time of the Johanniterkomming and shows a dense, partly irregular structure in the two storeys with a slight overhang, which is created by figures of men on the corner and collar posts is stiffened. Stands carved with volute cords and filler wood adorned with dew tape adorn the half-timbered structure of the house that was once connected to the front building. The following inscription is located above the lintel of the door: "CLZH (Carl Landgraf zu Hessen) Anno 1711". | 1711 |

| Residential building | Wiesenfeld, Landgraf-Karl-Straße 4, hallway: 6, parcel: 48 |
Wide-spread residential building in a larger courtyard, which may have been moved here with its residents from Todenhausen in 1755. The simple, storey-by-storey building without overhangs rises above a flat stone plinth and shows a regular, dense framework structure with simple locking on both floors, widely spread man figures on the upper floor and storey-high struts on the ground floor. | around 1755 |

| Courtyard | Wiesenfeld, Marktstrasse 5, hallway: 6, parcel: 79/1 |
In the course of the 19th century, a few "Aussiedlerhöfe" were built on the old country road, which have since been heavily rebuilt. The courtyard, which was also used as an inn on Landstrasse for many years and was built between 1841 and 1851, with an eaves-standing, completely slated, six-axis residential house, which is accessed via an outside staircase with a younger vestibule, and a barn built on the gable facing the street, has remained almost unchanged. The two-storey half-timbered barn rises above a flat stone base and shows a very regular half-timbered structure, which is trimmed floor by floor without overhangs and is reinforced by partly floor-to-ceiling and partly three-quarter struts. | 1841/1851 |

| Old school | Wiesenfeld, Waldenserstraße 3 hallway: 6, parcel: 17/10 |
According to an inscription, the building was erected in Ernsthausen in 1810 and acquired as a schoolhouse by the Wiesenfeld community in 1838 and moved to its current location. The two-storey half-timbered house, which was expanded in 1886, was used as a school until 1952 and has been privately inhabited since 1972. The storey-by-storey house with a slight overhang of the upper floor shows a dense framework of strongly dimensioned timber, which is stiffened on the upper floor on the corner and collar posts by figures of men with opposing ankle straps and partly curved struts. The simpler ground floor shows smaller cross-sections and steep, storey-high struts. The entablature zone between the floors is formed by a frame, threshold and combed beam heads. On the frame of the first floor there is the following inscription: "... and have come from your father's hand, it is your gift and gift, soul, body, good, honor and status, thank you for your loyalty. All of which have thanks again tomorrow for your blessing, you to whom everything has been given. Furthermore, let goodness be upon me day and night, protect me on my way through the angel's strong watch ". Further inscriptions on wood that are obviously used for a second time read: "... his housewife trusted God and built this house in 1805 ... the master carpenter was Johann ..." - "we are building the city that wants to give us Glick Fried and the eternal Life through God's help and blessings ... ". | 1805/1810 |
