The following list contains the cultural monuments identified in the monument topography in the area of ​​the city of Frankenau , district of Waldeck-Frankenberg , Hesse .

Note: The order of the monuments in this list is based first on the districts and then on the address, alternatively it can also be sorted according to the name, the number assigned by the State Office for Monument Preservation or the construction time.

The basis is the publication of the Hessian list of monuments, which was created for the first time on the basis of the Monument Protection Act of September 5, 1986 and has been continuously updated since then.

The presence or absence of an object in this list does not provide legally binding information as to whether it is a cultural monument or not: This list may not reflect the current status of the official monument topography. This is available for Hessen in the corresponding volumes of the monument topography of the Federal Republic of Germany and on the Internet under DenkXweb - Kulturdenkmäler in Hessen (under construction). Even though these sources are updated by the State Office for the Preservation of Monuments in Hesse , they are not always up-to-date because there are always changes in the inventory of monuments.

Former school Allendorf, Dainroder Straße 3
hallway: 8, parcel: 46/4
On a square-like extension of Dainroder Strasse in the center of the village, a two-storey, eaves-standing schoolhouse was built by the community in 1838. The half-timbered house, which is timbered by storey, looks very compact due to the almost complete absence of a plinth on the ground floor. Timbered up flush with no overhangs, it shows a simple, single, double-locked structural framework on the ground floor and stiffened with steep storey-high struts. The building, which is covered by a flat gable roof, was extended to the west in 1878 by a container stiffened with floor-to-ceiling cross struts and a new roof was probably also provided at this time. The former stable in the west of the school, a broken stone building with a central access, is part of the scope of the monument. In 1955 the school was closed and the building was sold to private users. 1838 79488
 
Complete system of the historic town center Allendorf, entire complex of the historic town center Altefeldstrasse 2, 4; Bergstrasse 1-5; Dainroder Strasse 1; Erlenweg 1-3; Hardtbergstrasse 1; Hunoldstrasse 1-9, 4-8. The historic center of Allendorf has developed from several farmsteads that were leaned by the Haina Hospital. The cadastre still shows three large courtyards along the Erlenweg and three more north of the Altefeldstrasse and Bergstrasse. After the fiefs were replaced in the 1840s, new buildings were built on the farmsteads, which still shape the face of the community today. The irregular courtyards are partly designed as hooked courtyards, partly as three-sided courtyards and partly occupied by large-volume farm buildings and two-storey half-timbered houses. Typical of Allendorf are the high quarry stone plinths on the houses and the quarry stone floors of the barns, above which simply structured half-timbered structures rise. 760452
 
Gable-independent half-timbered house Allendorf, Hunoldstraße 7
hallway: 8, parcel: 29/6
Large-volume half-timbered house from 1810 with a gable facing the street over a quarry stone plinth made of greywacke with corner blocks and small windows with sandstone reveals, which was renewed at the end of the 19th century and shortened the ground floor. Since then, the former Einhaus has had a complete basement, at the front corner of which there is an inscription stone with the following inscription: "Johannes Freitag and his wife built this wall in 1810". The upper storeys of the house, which is lined up by storeys with a slight overhang, are used for residential purposes and show a regular, double-locked half-timbered structure with man figures on the corner posts. The corner posts are decorated with cartridges and circles, on the first floor also with rosettes, on the second floor with six-star. The floors are separated by a wide entablature zone with combed beam heads, the profiled upper floor threshold of which bears an inscription that is now largely illegible and that extends completely around the entire building. around 1810 79489
 
Protestant church Allendorf, Hunoldstraße 9
hallway: 8, parcel: 32/5
The community of Allendorf had its own church since the early 17th century, which was demolished in 1720 because of dilapidation. It took the poor parish almost two decades to build a new church, which was consecrated in 1739. A simple hall building with a solid ground floor made of quarry stone was created. A half-timbered floor with a simple lock and wide three-quarter struts on the corner posts rises above the ground floor, which has four axles on the long side. The wide entablature zone includes the profiled heads of stitch beams, on which the gallery rests inside, as well as a similar threshold that rests directly on the frame and combs over the beam heads. The upper end is formed by a steep gable roof with a small, octagonal roof turret with a steep tent roof in the west. In 1955, a retracted, square choir was added to the east. On the outside of the choir two tombstones from the mid-18th century were placed, the inscription of which is no longer legible.

The interior of the simple church is structured by the three-sided gallery resting on beveled stands and the high, beveled stand, which, mediated by a saddle wood and curved headbands, carries the central girder on which the beams of the flat ceiling rest. After the chancel had been added, the east wall was opened into a triumphal arch, on the south side of which a new pulpit was built. In the chancel itself there is only a block-like altar hall made of sandstone. The church only received an organ in 1966 when the congregation purchased an instrument from the organ builder Wolfgang Böttner from Frankenberg.

Old bakery Allendorf, Kastanienweg 6,
hallway: 8, parcel: 51/12
Next to the school, a bakery was built by the community at the same time. The single-storey building, located on the west side of the square-like extension of Dainroder Straße, was built from graywacke that was not bricked up in layers and provided with a sandstone corner block. The window and the entrance door on the gable side were also highlighted with sandstone reveals. 79491

Jewish Cemetery Altenlotheim, Am Knappe
Flur: 13, Parcel: 66
As early as 1787, three Jewish families were resident in Altenlotheim, and three more had moved in by 1804. They lived from trade, especially from the cattle and hide trade, trade in meat, fabrics, household goods, food and spirits. The Jewish community grew to 54 members by 1830. In 1840, the Jewish service took place in a rented room in a Christian house, but a synagogue was to be built according to plans by the district architect Stockhausen. For this purpose, a loan was taken from the itter lending office, the community pastor's house was bought and canceled. The building was still unfinished in 1844 by the fire fund, but sold again in 1845 due to a lack of financial means for completion. The service then took place again in a living room. In 1851 they moved to a new prayer room in an inn, and in 1854 to a room on the upper floor of a residential building. The last prayer room was an attic floor specially developed for this purpose. The rabbi only came to Altenlotheim on special occasions. From 1868 there was also an Israelite elementary school with around 20 children. The houses of the Jewish fellow citizens were spread out in the center of the village. Of the 44 members of the Jewish community remaining in 1905, the last six emigrated between 1933 and 1941.

The small Jewish community in Altenlotheim, which initially buried its dead in Frankenau, did not have its own burial site until the end of the 19th century. This cemetery, which is directly connected to today's cemetery of the community Altenlotheim at the north-western exit of the village, has been partially preserved. Even today there are five simple tombstones, one of which is a double grave, from the 19th century on an area of ​​300 m² enclosed by a hedge.

Historic town center Retirement home, complete facility 1 The area around the church square forms the core of the village of Altenlotheim. Starting from this center, the place grew in the direction of the Lorfe and along the Korbacher Straße. Setbacks such as the major fire in 1750 and another major fire in 1859, in which 72 buildings, including 34 residential houses, burned down, interrupted this development, so that the areas around the Burgstrasse, which was only traversed after 1859, to the forest road and west of the Lorfe only in the second half were settled in the 19th century. Almost all of the current buildings in the town were built after the fire from 1860 onwards, but the structure of the parcels around the church, due to its fragmentation and irregular structure, suggests a longer settlement tradition. The agricultural farmsteads in the area of ​​the Burgweg, largely designed as hook yards, are still predominantly provided with half-timbered houses with massive ground floors and structurally identical barns from the years immediately after 1859. Today the town center is characterized by dense development with differently structured courtyards with half-timbered houses and barns from the late 19th century. 760457
 
Forsthaus Schmittlotheim Altenlotheim, Im Mühlenbach 1
floor: 13, parcel: 4/3
North of the village, slightly elevated and set back from the street area of ​​the road to Schmittlotheim, the Schmittlotheim forester's house was built on a T-shaped floor plan in 1878/79. Like most forest houses from the Prussian era, it consists of a single-storey stable, which has been converted into residential use today, as well as 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 greywacke, the corners and window reveals of which are set off in color with red sandstone. 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 with double locking and cross bracing in the upper compartments. Both the residential building and the former stable, which has a boarded-up jamb floor, are covered with flat gable roofs with overhanging verges. 1878/1879 130159

Protestant church Altenlotheim, Kirchplatz 12,
hallway: 11, parcel: 13
In 1765, under the patronage of Landgrave Ludwig VIII, a new church was built in the middle of the almost triangular church square as a replacement for a church that went under in the great fire in 1750. A three-axis hall building was created with a three-eighth end that occupies the entire width of the building, with a retracted tower in front of it in the west. The ground floor of the church was built from quarry stone masonry, which is now plastered, and provided with arched windows with multi-profiled sandstone walls. A half-timbered upper floor originally rose above the profiled cornice that closed off the ground floor. According to the district builder, this half-timbered upper storey had evaded in many places in 1846 and the framework was broken in several places, so that there was a risk of collapse. Since the community did not respond to the concerns of the district builder, the church was closed in 1849 by the building management. In the following year, the entire upper floor was removed and a new one built in brick. The newly renovated church was consecrated on December 12, 1851. The newly built upper floor now takes on the shapes and axiality of the ground floor in a simpler form and ends with a wide, profiled eaves cornice, above which a flat roof hipped to the east rises. The simple tower was retained, but was given a new, octagonal upper floor and a lantern-like tower with a Welscher hood. On the east side of the church there is an inscription stone from the 18th century with a crown worn by two lions and the following inscription: "AMN Vente Deo ex votos vos gubernant Ludovico VIII Hassiae Landgravi (us), D Lt Hallwax satrapa et Klehm pastore floret adorando fabrica structa Deo evangelio D o M consecrata ".

The simple interior of the church with a flat ceiling is dominated by a three-sided gallery on octagonal stands with simple capitals and coffered parapet, which is continued as a wall template around the chancel. The organ occupies the east of the gallery with a classicist prospect. In the west there is an altar hall resting on classicist pillars, a baptismal font of the same design and the hexagonal pulpit behind the altar. The pulpit, probably created around 1590 by the carver Jost Schilling from Immighausen for the church in Höringhausen, was installed in Altenlotheim after the church burned in 1750. Body panels, base, parapet cornice and profile frame still show the original Renaissance shapes, feet, decorative boards and funnel-shaped intermediate link were renewed around 1750. Panels framed by leaves and fittings show half-length portraits of Christ Salvator "Christ is give all violence in heaven. Mat: 28", the prophet Isaiah "A rod goes out from the Stam Isai" and the pastor Heinrich Pankuke (1549–1632) from Höringhausen "Deo dante nihil. Potest invidia. H. Henrich Pankuke Pastor".

school Altenlotheim, Klosterstraße 4,
hallway: 7, parcel: 89/3
Shortly after 1900 on the south-eastern outskirts of the village, a school building on a rectangular floor plan with a side elevation on the right side. The base and ground floor of the large-volume building were built from quarry stone masonry that was not laid in layers. The regularly arranged, segment-arched windows are provided with smooth plaster flaps in contrast to the masonry. The slightly overhanging upper floor of the two-storey schoolhouse, which is closed off by a steep, hipped gable roof, shows a dense half-timbered structure that is reinforced with steep three-quarter struts. around 1900 79494
 
A house Altenlotheim, Korbacher Straße 12
hallway: 12, parcel: 5/1
A single house built around 1800 on the eaves facing Korbacher Strasse. The timber-framed, two-storey half-timbered house rises above a plastered base and shows a simple, flush timbered framework that is stiffened with three-quarter struts. In the left part of the stable, the three-quarter struts are also provided with headbands. around 1800 79495
 
Half-timbered house Altenlotheim, Korbacher Straße 14
hall: 12, parcel: 4/1
Half-timbered house built in two construction phases around 1800 and 1900. The building, erected on the eaves facing Korbacher Strasse, rises above a basement made of quarry stone that was previously used as a stable. The right, older component, used as a residential part, is accessed via a long flight of stairs and shows a timber-framed timber-framed structure with a regular, simply locked structure, which is stiffened with three-quarter struts and opposing headbands on the corner and collar posts. The wide beam zone between the ground floor and the slightly overhanging upper floor is particularly emphasized by rounded beam heads and filler wood. The left part of the stable takes up the basic form of the house, but shows a simpler half-timbered structure typical of the time with steep, storey-high struts. around 1800 79496
 
Half-timbered house Altenlotheim, Lorfestraße 4
hallway: 10, parcel: 10/2
Half-timbered house built in two construction phases in 1800 and 1900. The two-storey residential building from 1800, which was timbered by storeys, rises above a quarry stone base and was probably massively renovated at the same time as the business section was added to the ground floor around 1900. The slightly overhanging upper floor, however, still preserves the half-timbered structure from the time of construction with its far reaching three-quarter struts. On the threshold of the upper floor there is the following inscription: "Jesus wond in this house and never left it 1800". around 1800 79497
 

Dainrode

Protestant church Dainrode, Bogenstraße 1,
hallway: 4, parcel: 2/2
Until the end of the 18th century the parish belonged to the church in Geismar, whose pastor held a service every two weeks in Dainrode. The plans for the construction of today's church came about after the end of the Napoleonic era in the second decade of the 19th century. In 1827 the consistory in Marburg considered building a half-timbered church here according to plans by the master carpenter Bickhard. However, these plans were discarded by the Oberbaudirektion in Kassel, as these massive buildings were preferred. Therefore, the construction manager Koppen in Kassel created new plans for the construction of a massive church made of stone in classical forms. In 1829 the consistory in Marburg tried to implement an inexpensive solution based on plans by the master builder Nikolaus Arend, who was just building a new church in Geismar, but these were rejected in Kassel. So in the end a massive church was built according to Koppen's plans, which was completed in 1835.

The result was a simple three-axis hall building made of ashlar with a north-south orientation, with a retracted square tower with a slightly overhanging upper floor and a pointed, curved tent roof that houses the entrance. The tower, which protrudes slightly from the wall in the north, corresponds to a gabled porch in the south, which was probably formerly used as a small sanctuary, the windows of which have recently been walled up. The only architectural ornament of the simple, classicist building is a flat surrounding strip of cornice at the height of the arched windows. The upper end is a flat hipped roof that was renewed in 1987. The interior of the simple hall church is structured on three sides by the circumferential gallery resting on bevelled stands, which in the north accommodates the slightly protruding, simple organ prospect. On the upper floor of the gallery, which is provided with a simple coffered parapet, the chamfered stands are continued up to the ceiling resting on two parallel beams. In the south of the church, in front of the former chancel, there is now the simple altar room, the upper floor of the small annex building now occupies the pulpit.

Two-storey half-timbered barn Dainrode, Bonlandsweg 1
hallway: 4, parcel: 5/2
Two-storey half-timbered barn with a central entrance gate built in the second half of the 18th century at the eaves facing Bonlandsweg. The half-timbered structure, which is double-locked on the ground floor and single-locked on the upper floor, which is fitted flush, rises above a very flat stone base and is stiffened on the corner and collar posts by three-quarter struts. The fillings, which have largely been preserved as loam stacks, show plaster remnants from the construction period on the upper floor with grisaille in the form of lightly framed cartouches depicting various floral motifs as well as stars and people. 2nd half of the 18th century 79501
 
Schoolhouse and school barn Dainrode, Geismarer Straße 14
hall: 3, parcel: 9/8
In 1836 a school building was built for the first time in Dainrode, which was located at today's Geismarer Straße 1. For reasons of space, however, in 1903 the community had a new, massive schoolhouse built on the western edge of the town according to plans by the district building inspector Hippenstiel. The building, corresponding in its basic form to the school of Louisendorf, rises above a flat stone plinth and shows a ground floor made of greywacke, comparable to the school in Altenlotheim, with corner blocks and window reveals made of sandstone. The brick upper floor is now simply plastered and covered by a steep gable roof with half-hips. An inscription stone with the inscription "Erbaut 1902" is embedded on the street side. At the same time as the school, the small barn made of greywacke with sandstone blocks was built. The building has been in private use since 1977. 1903 79503
 
Two-storey half-timbered house Dainrode, Geismarer Straße 9
hall: 4, parcel: 17/7
At the rear of a large courtyard facing the courtyard, a two-storey half-timbered house built on the eaves. The house, built in 1819 and extended to the east towards the end of the 19th century, rises above a stone base with corner blocks and a sandstone cover. It shows a regular, simply locked framework with three-quarter struts on the ground floor and man figures with ankle bands on the upper floor. The wide entablature zone of the four-axis building includes rounded and grooved beam heads on which a profiled threshold with a continuous tooth frieze is combed over. The corner posts of the house are also carved with round bar profiles with palm capitals that rise above a column base on the upper floor. 1819 79502
 
Complete system of the historic town center Dainrode, entire system of the historic town center Bogenstrasse 1, 2, 4; Bonlandsweg 1, 2, 3; Dornheckenstrasse 1, 2, 4; Geismarer Strasse 1-9, 4, 8; Löhlbacher Straße 2, 4, 5.Dainrode developed after resettlement in the 15th century as a street village along today's Geismarer and Löhlbacher Straße. The starting point was a mill moat that still flows through the center of the village and supplied water to a mill that no longer exists today. Irregular, mostly smaller farms were created between Mühlstrasse in the west and Lengelbach in the east of the village. In the cadastral description of 1785 Dainrode is described as follows: "It is located in a deep valley in a fairly pleasant and Sömmerrischen area (...) A small stream that comes down from the village of Hauern, from where it originates, also flows through the local village. There is no country road through this village, but only those traveling on foot from Frankenberg to Wildungen pass through here (...) This village community currently consists of 32 contributory houses (...) The houses here are quoad superinstructa partly good and more mediocre Genus, including the Hofreyden almost continuously for extending and retracting comfortably (...) ”. In 1855 the condition and construction of the houses are described again in more concrete terms: “The construction of the houses is two-story, made of wood, the compartments are provided with whips; under the lower storey are walls of sandstone. The walls contain cellars and stables, barns and stable buildings separately (...) the houses are tiled ”. The half-timbered farm rides still shape the character of the village today. Sometimes as hooked courtyards, but mostly as irregularly built courtyards with courtyards open to the street, they create an attractive contrast between direct roadside development and open spaces. 760464
 
Half-timbered house Dainrode, Löhlbacher Straße 4,
hallway: 4, parcel: 26/1
In 1753 in the back of a large yard, half-timbered house built on the eaves facing the yard. The irregularly structured house rises above a floor-to-ceiling stone plinth on the left of the front door and flat on the right of the front door. The left part of the basement was originally used to keep small livestock, the right part houses the cellar of the house that extends to the first row of bars. The ground floor, which is very high on the right, is locked three times and is stiffened by very tall man figures on the corner and collar posts. To the left of the classicist front door, the half-timbered structure, which was partially replaced at the end of the 19th century, is provided with storey-high struts. Above a wide entablature zone with rounded and grooved beam heads as well as rounded filler wood, the regularly structured upper floor rises with a slight overhang with its double locking, the widely spread male figures with foot struts on corner and collar posts and the small, still legible window openings. The corner posts of the house are also carved with dew bands. On the lintel there is the remainder of an inscription: "Soli Deo Gloria Johann Daniel Fackiner and Anna Elisa ...", on the threshold of the first floor another inscription with the following wording: "Got preserve this house also everything wahs goes in and out 1753 16 May Meisder Johan Henrich Feisel ZM ". 1753 79504
 
Oldest building in the village Dainrode, Löhlbacher Straße 5
hallway: 5, parcel: 20/1
The oldest building in the village was erected in 1734 directly east of the Lengelbach, with the gable facing the street. The two-storey, timber-framed half-timbered house has a very high ground floor on the outside, which houses the basement up to the lower chain of bars inside. It shows a regular, dense framework structure with man figures on the corner posts, and on the upper floor also on the bundle posts. All struts are additionally stiffened with ankle straps. The corner posts are grooved to simulate a stone look, the wide entablature zone is provided with grooved and rounded beam heads, rounded filler timber and a slightly protruding, profiled threshold. The year "Anno 1734" is carved on the stand next to the entrance. 1734 79505
 

Ellershausen

Bear Mill Ellershausen, Bärenmühle 1
hall: 1.11, parcel: 30/7
The Bärenmühle, which may owe its name to the Bärenbach that flows into the Lengelbach, has belonged to the Huhn family, who were well-to-do in Ellershausen, since the late Middle Ages. After the chicken died out in 1587, the mill was passed on to the von Dersch family as a female line of succession, after which it again passed to the von Drach family as a female line. After the impoverishment of the noble von Drach family, the Bärenmühle passed into the possession of the miller families who lived here in the early 19th century. In 1850 the mill largely burned down and was rebuilt in the following years. In 1959, District Administrator Kohl acquired the mill and expanded it into a residential building. The house from the middle of the 19th century was again destroyed by flames in 1987 and the upper floor and roof had to be completely replaced. The mill property today consists of the house built around 1850 and largely renovated in 1987, a quarry stone barn adjoining it at right angles from around 1800 and a stable opposite the house from 1852, which was also built in quarry stone. 16th century / reconstruction around 1850 760477
 
Half-timbered house Ellershausen, Felsenstrasse 1,
hallway: 6, parcel: 1/9
Smaller half-timbered house built towards the end of the 18th century on a high stone plinth. The two-storey building, facing the street, has a regular, simply locked framework with wide-reaching three-quarter struts, which are provided with headbands on a corner of the house on the ground floor. The wide entablature zone between the ground floor and the heavily overhanging upper floor is particularly emphasized with rounded and grooved beam heads, rounded filler timber and a profiled, partially grooved threshold. Late 18th century 79507
 
Complete system of the historic town center Ellershausen, entire complex of the historic town center Allendorfer Strasse 2-10; Felsenstrasse 1-7, 2-8; In der Gasse 1, 6; Lengeltalstrasse 16, 17, 18, 19, 21, 23, 27; Mittelstrasse 1, 3, 2-10; Mühlenstrasse 2, 4 ; Ringstrasse 1, 3; Saalenstrasse 1; Torweg 1, 2; To the noble court 1, 2

The historic town center of Ellershausen developed, as the small-scale block structure, the irregular parcel layouts and the strongly curved streets show, northeast of the church between Felsenstrasse and Lengelstrasse around Mittelstrasse and Ringstrasse. At some distance from this settlement there was the fortified aristocratic seat until the end of the 18th century, which was inhabited successively by the families Huhn, Dersch and Drach. In the north and east of the basin, which was formerly enclosed by a moat, retaining walls with a subsequent flat, wide rampart have been preserved. According to tradition, a barrel-vaulted cellar of the castle is buried in today's courtyard area. Only after the decline of the Drach family, who largely had to sell their property in the second half of the 18th century, did the development move ever closer to the castle courtyard and the area between Allendorfer Strasse and Lengelstrasse was settled. To this day, the structure of the place is characterized by the narrow, curved streets and the irregular arrangement of the residential houses and agricultural properties. Today's buildings were largely not built until the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Chicken mill Ellershausen, Huhnsmühle
hallway: 11, parcel: 7/4
Despite its name, the chicken mill no longer belonged to the Huhn family, who were wealthy in Ellershausen. The chicken mill already appears in the Wolkersdorfer Salbuch from 1574 as the property of the Landgraves of Hesse. As the uninterrupted series of landgraves' feudal letters for the millers of the chicken mill from 1601 to 1800 shows, the mill remained in the possession of the landgraves until the turn of the 19th century. After 1800 it was sold to the miller. In 1847, the miller Guillaume Bontoux from Louisendorf bought the mill and moved here. As the inscription on the house shows, he had a new house built for himself and his family in 1850: "Guillaume Bontoux et la femme Elisabeth ne Lange ont batir cette maison XXV octobr MDCCCL - The master carpenter was Heinrich Schwabeland from Frankenau". Opposite a half-timbered barn with a quarry stone ground floor, the two-story residential building rises up with the recently renovated ground floor. The upper floor, however, still preserves the framework from the construction period with its regular, double-locked structure reinforced on the corner and collar posts by steep, storey-high struts. 16th Century 760478
 
Cake mill Ellershausen, cake mill 5,
cake mill hall: 4, parcel: 13/5
The mill, known as the Mittelmühle until the 19th century, has belonged to the Huhn family, who were well-to-do in Ellershausen, since the late Middle Ages. After the chicken died out, it came into the possession of the von Dersch family in 1587, after which it passed to the von Drach family in the middle of the 17th century. Probably since the devastation of the Thirty Years' War the mill had fallen in desolation and its structural remains as well as the meal justice passed to the owners of the Supreme Mill. They operated a sawmill here since 1722 at the latest. After all mill buildings were replaced by new buildings between 1854 and 1864, another miller moved in with the miller Simon Kuche, from whom the mill takes its name to this day. The mill is now privately inhabited. The mill property consists of a single-storey half-timbered house facing the courtyard with a high, slated dwelling and a steep pitched roof with crooked hips, a completely clad mill building built on an L-shaped floor plan and a barn with a side passage that separates the courtyard into two areas and one behind it Half-timbered stable. 16th Century 79510
 
Lengelmühle Ellershausen, Lengelmühle 4
hallway: 4, parcel: 5/1
The Lengelmühle is mentioned for the first time in 1201, owned by the Count von Ziegenhain. In 1269 Arnold von Huhn became the owner, who at that time sold his property directly at the mill to the Haina monastery, which had the Lengelhof built there. Like most of the possessions of the Counts of Ziegenhain, the Lengelmühle was transferred to the Haina Monastery after 1201, which later became the lord of the lord. Only after the secularization did the Huhn family acquire the mill from the possessions of the dissolved monastery. Half a century later, the Lengelmühle also passed to the von Dersch family and in 1728 came into the possession of the von Drach family. Since the noble von Drach family became more and more impoverished in the course of the 18th century, Ehrhard von Drach only retained the Lengelmühle as a remnant property in 1791, on which he has lived since then as a miller and farmer. The descendants of the von Drach family - in female inheritance - still live on the Lengelmühle, which has not been operated since the 1960s. The oldest of today's buildings were built at the time when Ehrhard von Drach took up residence at the mill. The remainder of an inscription with the following wording can be found on an adjoining building: “Captain Alhard von Drach and his son Friedrich trusted God and built this building ... carpenter Johann Jost Landau von Schreufa”. The large-volume residential house facing the courtyard rises above a high, plastered base and was erected as a stand construction, atypical for this region. With the structure stiffened with three-quarter struts that extend over both storeys, the storey division is optically barely visible via long bars above the windows. 12th Century 760476
 
Supreme Mill Ellershausen, Oberste Mühle 1, Oberste Mühle
Hallway: 4, Parcel: 8/6
The upper mill, the mill of a group of five mills closest to the village of Ellershausen in the further course of the Lengeltal valley, has been attested since the later Middle Ages. Since the 13th century it belonged to the possessions of the noble Huhn family based in Ellershausen. After the male line of the Huhn family died out, the mill passed to the von Dersch family via female inheritance in 1587 and, after they died out in the middle of the 17th century, to the von Drach family. Since then, the upper mill was combined with the cake mill, which is a short distance away. The two mills were not sold to separate millers until 1868. The supreme mill continued to operate for a hundred years and was abandoned in 1965. The property consists of an L-shaped barn with a quarry stone ground floor and a half-timbered upper floor. Erected at the end of the 19th century, the building shows the typical half-timbering with a slight overhang, regular half-timbered structure and steep storey-high struts. Opposite the barn rises the two-storey, floor-to-floor residential building. Towards the courtyard, it shows a regular, simply locked half-timbered structure from around 1800, which is stiffened with man figures on the corner posts. The wide entablature zones between the slightly overhanging storeys are particularly emphasized by rounded and grooved beam heads, rounded filler timber and a chamfered and profiled threshold. 13th Century 79509
 
Protestant church Ellershausen, Saalenstraße 1
hallway: 6, parcel: 16/2
A small hall church built in 1896 on the south-western outskirts of roughly hewn greywacke. The hall, built in neo-Gothic forms, is illuminated on the long sides by three pointed arched windows with sloping sandstone sills and sandstone reveals in the arched field and covered by a gable roof stretched between two stepped gables. The north-eastern narrow side is occupied by a retracted, square tower with ogival biforias as sound openings in the bell storey and a pointed, very steep tower spire flanked by smaller helmet points, which on the northeast side houses the main entrance with an ogival reveal and a tympanum with a cross and the date 1896. The staircase to the organ loft with a beveled corner was attached to the side of the tower in connection with the nave. In front of the south-western narrow side is a small square chancel with a sacristy attached to the side, stepped wall templates and a three-lane choir window. The main decorative motif of the simple church is the color contrast between the greywacke of the masonry and the red sandstones of the window reveals, wall templates, gable covers and cornices.

The interior of the simple village church is dominated by the high wooden barrel vault, which is held in place by four trusses resting on profiled sandstone consoles with bevelled beams. The north-eastern part of the church is occupied by the wide organ gallery resting on chamfered stands with its neo-Gothic parapet. In the southwest, behind the neo-Gothic pulpit, a pointed triumphal arch opens up with the adjoining chancel with a ribbed vault and a simple block-like altar canteen.

In the only major battle of the Seven Years' War in the Frankenau area on July 29, 1760, the non-commissioned officer Johann Julius Dehnert from Röddenau was shot and probably buried on the spot. A short time later, a memorial stone was placed on his grave, which is still in situ today. The tall, rectangular, heavily weathered sandstone shows a large writing field, framed by tendrils and leaves and crowned by a cherub with the following inscription: "Here lies the faded body of the blessed Mr. Johann Julius Dehnert, the son of the blissful Lord Forester Mr. Johann Just Dehnert zu Reddenau Obiger As a non-commissioned officer with the laudable Hese Jäger choir, he was shot and buried here on the 29th of July 1760 during his service by French troops ". 760491
 
House Katzenstein Frankenau, Friedrichstraße 13
hallway: 32, parcel: 10/2
In a prominent urban position, on a slight curve in the otherwise straight course of Friedrichstrasse, two-storey residential and commercial building. The building owner of the house built in 1906 was Isaak Manus Katzenstein, a Jewish leather goods dealer who was born in Frankenau in 1866 and abducted in 1941. During the Second World War a Franconian bought the house. There was a grocery store on the first floor. After 15 years of vacancy, the Battenberg contractor Günter Radel bought the building in mid-2006 and renovated it.

The plastered building, built over a flat stone plinth in brick masonry and facing Friedrichstrasse, shows on the street side a wide, built-in shop fitting as well as segment-arched windows with profiled reveals on the ground floor and a roofed balcony at the junction of the connecting path to Sternbergstrasse, which is particularly emphasized by a sloping corner of the building wrought iron lattice on the upper floor. In addition, the corner situation is underlined by a high, multi-curved Welsche hood, which gives the corner a tower-like character. The upper floor, which has meanwhile been slated, was pulled forward slightly towards the connecting path and emphasized with a multi-curved wave gable with ox-eye. In clear contrast to the simple plastered structure of the house is the corrugated verge of the gable facing Friedrichstrasse, the upper gable field of which is provided with a nertamide surrounded by braided band and crowned by a wrought iron thoracic crown.

Complete system of the historic town center Frankenau, entire system of the historic town center At first, Frankenau was not a planned city, but arose as a wreath of houses around the hill with the church. In the course of the 13th century, a second ring of houses grew around the inner ring, giving the structure the appearance of a closed, fortified city. The city had no walls, just ramparts and houses that were fortified well into modern times. In 1844 the mayor ordered: "As has been the case since time immemorial, no exit from the city other than the 3 city gates ... should be tolerated. Every resident in the ring of the city therefore has the corners, building sites and To preserve gardens with doors and fences in such a way that nobody can pass in and out ".

In the cadastral description of Frankenau from 1787 it is stated: "The same (town) is not surrounded by a city wall and has only 3 gates and a water gate, the houses are then mostly covered with straw and in a very dilapidated condition ... Neither a country road , still on horseback as outgoing mail goes through the city ... In the city there is only a dilapidated church with a tower built of stones ". In total, there were only 159 houses in the city at the time, providing shelter for 684 residents. Many of the dilapidated public buildings disappeared in the early 19th century. The Obertor was demolished in 1818, the Niedertor in 1833, followed a few years later by the Neutor. In 1839 the Kochhaus next to the town hall and the municipal mill in front of the Niedertor were demolished, in 1853 the municipal brewery. Only the town hall was extensively renovated in 1840. Around 1840 the city presented itself as an ensemble of 193 houses, of which only a few were fully developed, over 100 were still thatched and around 50 were threatened with collapse. This was the reason why 25 houses burned down in a very short time in a fire in 1852. Only a few years later in 1865 the old town burned down almost completely. Since one now had the opportunity, it was decided to re-route the roads, to widen them and to develop them into roads. The parcels were also enlarged and cut more regularly. Only the course of the streets around the church remained largely unchanged. The building block was only divided and re-parceled by today's Kirchstrasse. In the extension of the widened Waldecker Straße, the Frankenberger Straße was completely new. The historic southern entrance to the city followed today's Steinweg. Gartenstrasse, Wilhelmstrasse, Neue Strasse, Lindenstrasse, Helgelandstrasse and Friedrichstrasse were completely rebuilt. The old parcel structure was only preserved in the area between Friedrichstrasse and Am Neuen Tor, north of the church. The city plan, which until 1865 was characterized by narrow streets with many curves, constrictions and widenings as well as an irregular parcel structure, is now a grid with wide, straight streets and regular escape lines. Only 43 houses survived the fire. In the decade after 1865, almost a hundred buildings were rebuilt, so that the city has completely changed its face. There was only one similar wave of construction between 1896 and the beginning of the First World War, when 35 new houses were built.

In 1588, Landgrave Ludwig von Hessen-Marburg was able to completely take possession of the estate of Itter, which had been pledged up to that point, and to establish the office of "Herrschaft Itter". In the course of this territorial reorganization, a border comparison between the Landgraviate of Hesse-Marburg and the County of Waldeck took place in the following years, the end of which was the establishment of the boundary stones between the two countries. In 1590, the simple boundary stone marked No. 81 was erected here. After the former territories of the Landgraviate of Hessen-Marburg were separated from the remaining Landgraviates of Hessen-Darmstadt and Hessen-Kassel, three territories came together at this point. The following stones with the numbers 78-80, which mark Kassel and Darmstadt, were only erected a century after the division of the area in 1754. from 1590 760493

Protestant church Frankenau, Rieschstraße 4
hallway: 31, parcel: 66
When the city was founded in 1242 by Landgrave Heinrich Raspe, Frankenau certainly had its own church, but it belonged to the Quernstkirche under parish law (cf. Altenlotheim). In 1319 a pastor is mentioned for the first time in Frankenau. Possibly around this time the city had received its own pastor's office, which also supplied the communities in Altenlotheim and Löhlbach until the 17th century. The church has been Lutheran since 1528, and since the 17th century it has also been used by the Reformed congregation overseen from Frankenberg.

A presumably still medieval church was so dilapidated towards the end of the 18th century that the congregation celebrated services in the town hall. It was torn down in 1833 and replaced between 1834 and 1859 by a classicist hall built with the simplest means, but which had serious structural defects. A round tower made of stone blocks, which supposedly was built before the city was founded, belonged to the church, which in the Middle Ages also served for defense and was connected to the church, which was demolished in 1833. This "Franconian borderland tower" was preserved as a free-standing bell tower after the old church was torn down and was demolished in 1869 due to disrepair after the great city fire in 1865, in which the new church burned down and the tower burned out. In 1876 the current neo-Gothic church was rebuilt by master builder Wilhelm Müller as his first major work; The executed and several alternative designs have been preserved. A crack in the tower during construction and unsuccessful attempts to remove it caused it to be demolished and rebuilt again. The inauguration of the church took place in April 1878. Renovation in 1992. Located in the middle of the town, which was rebuilt after the fire in 1865 with a completely different city layout, rising from the southwest to the northeast, with the choir oriented to the northeast. The old churchyard was walled in oval shape according to the city map from around 1776, the previous church evidently oriented differently. Müller designed the new building with a line of sight to the tower and nave from Rieschstrasse, so that it lies back in the sloping terrain of the churchyard and appears higher than it actually is. Flat-roofed gallery hall with recessed five-eighth polygon and west tower made of quarry stone with ashlar structure. The side walls of the outer building are divided into three axes by little protruding buttresses and are provided with high-seated, two-lane windows above a narrow cornice at sill height, which decorate simple circles in the courtyard. Small portals in the east walls next to the choir. The choir polygon is provided with stronger buttresses and five-peaks in the windows. The tower consists of a high shaft, the walls of which are enclosed by buttress-like lining walls. With Wimperg suspected, protruding double portal with profile walls on the west side, in the tympanum a cross and the symbols of Alpha and Omega; above a window with a larger aperture. The bell storey is provided with double windows, which are coupled via columns with capitals and shaft whorls. Octagonal, slate pointed helmet, four wichhouses at the base of the helmet. The interior was inspired by the Friedrichswerder Church in Berlin (1824–1831 by Karl Friedrich Schinkel) and transformed into a broad variant with a flat ceiling, stylistically rooted in the English early Gothic. In its basic idea it is a pillared hall. On pillars, which are square in plan and connected with flat segmental arches, stone galleries with slightly recessed, closed stone parapets are built into the side walls and in the west. The parapets are interrupted above the pillars by sturdy round pillars with protruding leaf capitals on which short, wide, pointed transverse barrels rest. The passages in the galleries at the level of the pillars are formed from architraves on wall templates. In the spandrels between the barrels, there are wooden wall posts on which the flat ceiling rests. The wide choir arch with broken corners is accompanied by a support braced on consoles, a shape that is repeated in abbreviated form as the beginning of the vault in the choir. The steep sloping ceilings for the choir windows are unusual. A restrained color scheme and painting underline the architecture. A few profile valleys and the rib edges in the choir are laid out in dark red, the ribs are accompanied by small, stylized leaves, the painted choir keystone is adorned with gilded ribs with a colored background. Late classical ornament band at the ceiling attachment. The choir walls are equipped with a painted textile wall hanging below the window sills. The original furnishings were based on Müller's designs (received from the pulpit and organ brochure, 1877). Four-part altarpiece by Christian Braun in brittle, peculiarly stylized neo-Gothic forms. In each axis there is a painted figure of a saint, the two central axes are held together by a lunette with a Lamb of God and crowned by a wheel cross between pinnacles on pillars. The five-sided sandstone pulpit has no sound cover. The pulpit rests with closed parapets, each with a quatrefoil, between corner pillars on a short pillar foot, the leaf capital of which corresponds to the upper capitals in the nave; A sandstone staircase connects with a quarter-circle arc from the choir room. Five-part, flat organ front by Furtwängler with a raised central section closed off by a Wimperg, the high substructure jumps back a little; the organ work was rebuilt in 1975. On the north east wall of the nave there is a memorial stone "In memory of the glorious campaign of 1870-71", a black inscription plate with names between columns on a high plinth and a keel arch attachment with a six-pass and crabs. The monument scope also includes the war memorial in front of the church.
