List of cultural monuments in Drei Gleichen (municipality)

The list of cultural monuments in Drei Gleichen (municipality) is as of July 14, 2016 and contains in accordance with the law on the maintenance and protection of cultural monuments in the state of Thuringia (ThüDSchG) in the current version of February 24, 2016 or the first Law amending the ThüDSchG of November 23, 2005, the cultural monuments of the community Drei Gleichen in the Thuringian district of Gotha .

Definitions

The protection of immovable cultural monuments already arises from the existence of the legal requirements of § 2 of the Thuringian Monument Protection Act and does not depend on the entry in the list of monuments of the state or the municipalities. This means that objects that are not included in a list of monuments can definitely be monuments.

Cultural monuments

According to § 2 of the Thuringian Monument Protection Act, cultural monuments are all things, aggregates or parts of things that are of public interest for historical, artistic, technical, scientific, folklore or urban planning reasons as well as for reasons of historical village image maintenance. Monument ensembles and ground monuments are also counted among the cultural monuments.

Monument ensemble

A monument ensemble can be:

• Overall structural systems: Overall structural systems are, in particular, groups of buildings, uniformly designed quarters and settlements and historical town centers including the plants, open spaces and water areas associated with them.

• Characteristic street, square or townscape: A characteristic street, square or townscape is given in particular if the appearance of the facility is indicative of a specific era or development or of a characteristic construction method with different styles.

• Characteristic local floor plans: A characteristic local floor plan is given if the appearance of the facility is characteristic of a certain epoch or development, in particular with regard to local and settlement forms, street layouts, plot structures and fortifications.

• Historic parks and gardens: Historic parks and gardens are works of horticultural art, the location of which, as well as the architectural and plant design, bear witness to the function of the complex as a living space and self-portrayal of earlier forms of society and the culture it supported. This also includes animal and botanical gardens, provided they have their own overall historical and architectural design.

• historical production sites and plants.

Not all parts of a monument ensemble have to be cultural monuments in order to be considered cultural monuments.

Ground monument

Movable or immovable objects that were or are hidden in the ground or under water and that provide information about animal or plant life (paleontological monuments) or that represent evidence, remains or traces of human culture (archaeological monuments) are soil monuments.

Historical background

Drei Gleichen is a municipality in the Thuringian district of Gotha. It lies between the cities of Erfurt , Gotha and Arnstadt and is named after the castles of the Three Equals .

history

The oldest place in the community that can be documented is Mühlberg, which was first mentioned in 704.

The first community of Drei Gleichen was created on January 1, 2009 from the merger of the previously independent communities of Grabsleben , Mühlberg , Seebergen and Wandersleben , all of which belonged to the Drei Gleichen administrative community. Until the merger, the districts of Großrettbach and Cobstädt , which now belong to the municipality of Drei Gleichen, belonged to Grabsleben , whereby this administrative community was dissolved. On July 6, 2018, the municipalities Günthersleben-Wechmar and Drei Gleichen merged to form the rural municipality Drei Gleichen, the second municipality with this name.

The seat of the community is Wandersleben . However, some offices are also located in Mühlberg.

Note: In the course of the reorganization of the municipality by amalgamating the 6 villages mentioned above, some streets were renamed. These are listed here with their current names. It affects the roads:

• Church square in Cobstädt: now school square
• Karl-Marx-Strasse in Seebergen: now Hauptstrasse
• Main street in Wandersleben: now Menantesstraße (from the town center to the eastern end of the town) and Schulstraße (from town center to the west to the Alte Schäferei junction), from there Wechmarer Straße
• New alley in Wandersleben: now Kirchstrasse

		Mühlburg including Radegundis Chapel ("See Archaeological Monuments")		8-110 / 1 layer
	Ringhofen 1	Ringhofen estate	The farm on the outskirts in the direction of Wechmar is one of the oldest mentioned individual farms in Thuringia. It was built in the 10th century as the Vorwerk of Gleichen Castle. In 1816 the Prussian king donated the estate to Karl von Müffling, an officer who was highly deserved in the wars of liberation. He spent the last four years of his life here and in Erfurt. [3] Today there is a riding stables and a golf resort with a restaurant and hotel on the estate.	17-100 / 5, 249, 18-20 / 2, 3-226 / 1 location Gut Ringhofen at Wikipedia

Sacred buildings

image	address	Monument designation	comment	Corridor / parcel location coord. Web link
	Schulplatz 9, Cobstädt	Church (no name) and furnishings	The church emerged from a chapel that was expanded and converted into a church after the Reformation. The tower bears the year 1581 on its east side. The interior includes the organ, an octagonal, cup-shaped, wooden baptismal font from the Renaissance, a Renaissance pulpit with a sound cover that was renewed in 1850, a Luther painting, an old offering box and a beautiful church window.	1-14 Location Cobstadt Church at Wikipedia
	Schulgasse 1, Grabsleben	Church of St. Magdalena and furnishings	A previous church was demolished in 1696 due to dilapidation and the new one was built. Of the three former bells, the es bell still rings today, while the others had to be given in 1940 for armament purposes. The organ by the organ builder Johann Christoph Thielemann was installed in 1738. In 1749 the tower received a new striking clock. The interior of the church impresses with beautiful paintings on the pulpit and the balustrade fields of the gallery. The view upwards is limited by a mighty wooden barrel vault with painted angels and biblical scenes from the beginning of the 20th century. The gallery painting dates from the time the nave was built, the beginning of the 18th century, and clearly shows the style of painting that is overgrown with the village and the peasantry. The three-winged altar kept in the church is a particular treasure.	1-55 / 1 Location St. Magdalena Church at Wikipedia
	Pfarrgasse, Großrettbach	St. Gotthard Church and furnishings	Today's church is the successor to a church that was demolished in 1821. The new church was inaugurated on November 4th of the same year.	1 layer
	Günthersleben, Kirchstrasse	Church of St. Petri	Presumably a Romanesque church stood here as early as the 10th century, but a large part of it was demolished due to its dilapidation. The current church was built in 1694 on the old foundation walls. Recently it was found during grouting work that the central part of the nave dates from the Romanesque period.	1-149 Location of St. Petri Church at Wikipedia
	Goethestrasse 4, Mühlberg	Church of St. Luke	A church in Mühlberg was first mentioned in 726. In 1200 a small Romanesque church building can be proven. The present church is a medieval church, which was built around 1300 as a fortified church with a churchyard and served as a refuge for people in times of war. The late Gothic figural wall paintings above the pulpit altar are impressive. They were created around 1450 as a Secco painting, but were not rediscovered until 1977 during a renovation. The center of the painting are the apostles Peter and Paul, who hold the handkerchief of Christ in their hands. The church contains the Radegundis chapel in the lower part of the tower.	21-97 Location of St. Luke's Church on Wikipedia
	Main street, Seebergen	Church of St. George and fittings, remains of the defensive wall and old gravestones	The church was built from 1511 to 1587 using Seeberger sandstone. On June 11, 1610, a fire severely damaged the church. It was completely restored just a year later, with plaster and new wall paintings. The new equipment was in the Renaissance style. A wall inscription and the year 1611 above the arch of the tower door inside the church attest to this.	1-215 Location of St. George's Church on Wikipedia
	Menantesstrasse 3, Wandersleben	Church of Saint Peter and equipment	The church of St. Petri was originally Romanesque, as evidenced by walled-in Romanesque windows and a doorway from the same period. The church was first mentioned in a document in 1143. At that time, Wandersleben was named as the ecclesiastical administrative seat of the deanery, to which the parishes of Ermstedt, Kleinrettbach and Mühlberg also belonged. In 1527 the place became Protestant in the course of the Reformation by the Counts of Gleichen. Today's church stands on the Romanesque foundation walls. The tower, which was presumably built in the 15th century, burned out in 1655 and in 1671 its upper area got its present appearance. It was in danger of collapsing before it was renovated in 1997. The roof, facade and organ were also renovated, not least thanks to the efforts of the church building association.	Location St. Petri Church at Wikipedia
	Wechmar, Kirchplatz 11	St. Viti Church	In 1843 the people of Wechmar built one of the largest village churches in Thuringia on the foundations of the previous church, the Sankt-Viti-Kirche.	1-224 Location St. Viti Church at Wikipedia

	Geschwister-Scholl-Strasse 20	Hellbachs-Hof	The Hellbachs-Hof area comprises several buildings between Geschwister-Scholl-Strasse, Thomas-Müntzer-Strasse and Burgbach-Graben. Individual buildings are being rebuilt. The von Hellbach family was a Thuringian aristocratic family that was made nobility by Lothar von Sachsen in the 12th century "because of proven bravery" and temporarily had the Mühlburg as a fief. Hellbach's farm is her former manor. At the northern end of the property, where Thomas-Müntzer-Straße branches off to the Kulturscheune, the Untertor (also known as the “Niedertor”) stood until the 18th century, which, apart from the Obertor in Goethestraße, was the only access to the place and part of the former village fortifications .	20-153 / 1, 20-153-2 position
	Goethestrasse / Obertor	Remains of the village fortifications	At this point was the upper gate of the former village fortifications, of which only the remains of the wall are preserved today.

	Haarhäuser Strasse 2	Complete Steigmühle facility with a ditch	The oldest and largest mill in town is the Steigmühle (also known as “Stickmüllen” or “Stickmolen”). It was first mentioned in 1249, making it probably the oldest mill in town. It operated until 1970. It changed hands 28 times. The overshot mill wheel has a diameter of five meters. Gustav Freytag mentions the mill in his novel The Nest of the Wrens.	20-207 / 4, 207/5, 303/1 position
	Haarhäuser Strasse 23	Oil and pearl mill with ditch	The mill was first mentioned in 1528 in a hereditary interest book. It was also operated with the water of the spring spring, which at that time did not yet merge with the water of the castle stream at the “viaduct”. In 1728 the mill fell victim to a major fire. The mill has a stamping and pressing plant from the 18th century and is the only functioning mill of its kind in Thuringia. From 1990 it was expanded into a museum by the then owner.	20-204 / 2, 305/1 layer

	Market 3	Cellar entrance of the inn "Zum Weisse Roß"	The arched sandstone gate with keystone leads to a barrel-vaulted cellar made of tufa limestone. The cellar probably dates from the 17th century. The cellar contains a 5 m deep house well. The basement access is in the hallway. The metal-clad door shows the initials of the former homeowners in the arched fields. The door hinges are designed in the form of goat horns. The names of the previous owners have been carved into the sandstone arches since 1618. Today, as before, the cellar is used as a cool beer cellar.	20-95 location

	Market 15	Waidmühlstein with fountain	The Waidmühlstein probably comes from a Waidmühle, which stood near the Spring, on the so-called Gänsewaid. The millstone, carved from a piece of sandstone, has a diameter of 1.85 m and a thickness of 37 cm and a serrated running surface. The millstone is a testament to the woad milling, which was particularly important in Mühlberg, as in other places in Thuringia, from the 13th to the 16th century.	20-310 location

	Thomas-Müntzer-Str. 4th	Vorwerk	The Vorwerk is the former farm yard of the Mühlburg. It was first mentioned in 1278 as a farm yard belonging to the Mühlburg. The associated land was cultivated by the farmers in forced labor. The farm once belonged to the farm with a dwelling house, barn, stables, ancillary room and a well. In 1736 there was a partial rebuilding. The castle was in bad shape in the meantime. In the 19th and 20th centuries the Vorwerk was used as a sheepfold and a harvest barn. In 1801 it was leased to the community of Mühlberg, which later also became its owner. With funding from the state, state and municipality, a complex, step-by-step renovation of the Vorwerk with youth and senior citizens' club, residential building, building yard, gym and art and culture barn (inauguration 1999) including the open spaces has been carried out since 1990.	20-213, 20-368 / 214 position

	At the Burgbach	Stone cross III.	On September 8, 2013, the Open Monument Day 2013, a replica of a stone cross was ceremoniously erected on the outskirts in the direction of Röhrensee, commemorating a tragic accident on June 8, 1842, in which the 32-year-old miller Friederike Thiel (b. Steubert, daughter of Steigmüller) and her 10-year-old daughter Albertine were struck by lightning. The original stone cross (around 1450), declared a protected ground monument in 1957, disappeared without a trace in 1982 and has not yet been found despite all efforts. The replica was made on the basis of old photographs on the initiative of a Mühlberg cultural association in a stonemason in Wechmar . Originally the Mühlberg teacher Karl Heepe (1861–1951) described the stone cross in 1916 in the journal of the Thuringian Forest Association and made it widely known. In 1964 the cross was photographed intact for the last time. In 1971 it was badly damaged and demolished.	location

He was perhaps a relative of Menantes , whose father Tobias Hunold was also a mill owner and High Count Hatzfeldic bailiff. The lintel with the year 1605 bears the initials "CK" , which have not yet been interpreted . The coat of arms stone originally comes from the Henningshof .

Stone cross	Hiking life	Stone cross I.	The original cross was moved in 1931 by the Wandersleben domain tenant Loth to the moon garden on Burgberg, about 700 m south. It was stolen from there in 1991. A replica of the cross was erected there in 1993. The current (pictured) cross from the middle of the 15th century was found in March 1998 while excavating the old ford through the apple town in Wandersleben. Since a stone cross had previously stood at the current location of the cross, the found cross was placed here on May 21, 1998. It has the dimensions 90 cm (above ground) height, 60 cm width over both arms and 30 cm thickness.	10-47 / 7 position
Stone cross	Hiking life	Stone cross II.	The second stone cross from the late 15th century is popularly called "Bishop's Cross" or "Murder Cross" because according to legend it is supposed to commemorate the murder of the Bishop of Lausanne, Burkhard von Oltigen , during the siege of Gleichen Castle in 1089. There is also talk of a killed craftsperson, hence the name "Murder Cross". The cross is shown as a prominent point on numerous maps and views of Gleichen Castle. In the 19th century it was provided with signposts, which made old inscriptions unrecognizable. Today you can still decipher the somewhat destroyed writing: "Weg nach Wandersleben". In September 2009, after a renovation on behalf of the municipality of Drei Gleichen, it was erected again unchanged.	10-84 / 5 position

In 1774 the property passed to the neighbor, the brickworks owner Johann Joachim Reinhardt, who stopped the paper production. In the same year Johann Gottfried Köhler acquired the vacant Stedekorn mill near the Waidmühle. A frequent change of ownership followed with changes in the mill function.
