Sonneberger Strasse 1
As part of the reconstruction of the city center, which was destroyed in the Second World War , the administrative building of the council of Neuhaus am Rennweg was built between 1958 and 1961 for the district newly founded in 1952. The design of the corner building with two wings on an L-shaped floor plan came from Meiningen architect Herbert Fleischhauer. It still corresponded to the contemporary, all-German architectural approaches, whereby slated gable roofs and wood paneling came from the local building tradition. The north-west wing of the solid building was built from 1958 and the south-west wing with a separate hall building from 1960. The facades are structured in a grid. The corner of the house with a recessed shop area is emphasized by a gable turret. A sgraffito by the Lauscha artist Günter Dührkopp decorates the facade in Sonneberger Straße. It is intended to represent the economic sectors of the Neuhaus am Rennweg district. Today the building is the branch of the District Office of Sonneberg. In 2013 the separate hall building was torn down.

The glass blower and inventor of the gas discharge tube, Heinrich Geißler, grew up in the house . In the 20th century, an extension to the southwest was carried out. The so-called Geißlerhaus has housed a local museum since 1989. The framework is slated and filled with clay or plaster molds. The symmetrical street facade of the single-storey eaves side house characterizes the developed crooked hip roof with a dwarf house and arched roof.

The former village of Glücksthal is now a desert on the corridors of Neuhaus. The desert was the site of a glass works owned by the Greiner family, which was founded in 1736. The general decline of the glass industry and disagreements in the Greiner family led to the cessation of production in 1838 and in 1856 the estate was sold by Carl Alfred Greiner to the state of Saxony-Meiningen , which had the houses demolished in 1860.

Soil monuments
former raft pond
A rampart from an early Celtic settlement surrounds the top of the Herrenberg.
The ramparts southwest of the Bleßberg hilltop are dated to the younger Bronze Age.
The Königshügel, lying between Bleß and Herrenberg, was probably a fortification.
Late medieval and early modern gold mining took place on the eastern slope of the Blößberg. Trenches, a pinge field and collapsed tunnels are evidence of this.
The raft pond in the corridor of the Bleß was created by a dam with a clay seal before 1712 in order to drain logs from the forests of Herr von Schaumberg via the Truckenthaler Wasser .
The Evangelical Lutheran Church of Our Lady was built from 1789 to 1792. The model was the Reformed Church in Hildburghausen, today's Catholic Church, “St. Leopold ”. Due to structural damage, the demolition followed from 1833 to 1835, with the exception of the foundation walls and the tower, and the new building with the shape and structure of the old church, according to plans by Meininger Johann Georg Buck. The door and window frames and the foundation stone were taken from the previous building. The north-south hall church has corner pilasters and a slate hipped roof as well as a tower with a Welsh dome that houses the sacristy . The simply designed interior is characterized by the altar and the pulpit on the north side, two-storey galleries on pillars on the long sides and the gallery on the south side, with an organ from 1864 by Christoph Hofmann and Sons.
The rectory with community room was built next to the church in 1915 for a previous building from the 19th century. Designed in the style of homeland security architecture, it has a basement level clad with natural stone on which a single-storey, slated half-timbered building stands. The symmetrical street facade is emphasized in the middle by a polygonal extension under a two-axis dormer with triangular gable. The conclusion is a slate-covered, expanded mansard hipped roof with dormers.
At the end of the 18th century, Gotthelf Greiner had the building built as a residential building as part of the expansion of the Limbach porcelain factory. The construction is typical of residential houses in the slate mountains of that time, which were also commercially usable. The building later served as a joinery and post office. It has been the seat of the tourist office since 1993, at the intersection of Bundesstraße 281 and Scheibener Straße. The one-story, slated half-timbered building stands on a base. There is a vaulted cellar made of sandstone. The top is a half-hip roof with a knee stick . The street side gable bears a plaque with a clover leaf drawing and the inscription GG Söhne 1772.
The sovereignty stone was set in the 19th century in Limbach on the Coburg – Schwarzenburg post road in the course of the Rennsteig on the border between Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt and Saxony-Meiningen . It consists of two blocks and a cover plate and originally had a cast iron plate on the street side with the small Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt coat of arms .
The burial chapel was built in the 1830s for the Greiner family, who owned the Limbach porcelain factory. The last burial took place in the 1950s. In the following decades the crypt fell into disrepair and the burial place was devastated. Remains of about three coffins and eleven urns, the oldest from 1895, are still there. Probably the earliest neo-Gothic building in the Sonneberg district is near Limbach next to the Rennsteig on the northwest slope of the Petersberg. The two-storey solid building has a sandstone cuboid facade with a stepped gable and a slate roof. The crypt is in the basement, above is the former chapel room with a large pointed arch window in the gable front facing the valley. An obelisk made of cast iron plates as a memorial for Gotthelf Greiner once stood in front of the building, only the base of it remains. As part of the restoration of the building in 2011, the former chapel room was turned into a room of silence, in which Rennsteig hikers can relax and take a mental break.
In the former gold mining area of Wüstes Adorf there are still traces of mining from the "Gabe Gottes" and "Güte Gottes" mines that were established at the end of the 16th century.
Gold mining took place at the ship's crest between 1485 and 1590. On the south and west slopes there are above-ground mining facilities with trenches and heaps and underground mining facilities behind tunnel mouth holes.
State boundary stones from the 16th to 19th centuries are on the Rennsteig, which in this section was the border between Saxony-Coburg (from 1735/42 Saxony Meiningen) and Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt.
