Nassauer Hof (Wörsdorf)
The Nassauer Hof in Wallbacher Straße 2 in the Idstein district of Wörsdorf is a listed courtyard complex from the 19th century, which is now used as a pub and event hall ("Scheuer"). Nationally known artists such as Rodgau Monotones , Badesalz , Klaus Lage and Paddy Goes To Holyhead have performed in the Scheuer .
The building itself is an elongated eaves structure based on a plastered framework . In the middle wing there is a hall on the upper floor, which is now used as a pub. The Scheuer event hall is located in the eastern part of the facility and can be reached via the courtyard entrance.
The construction of the building took place in the middle of the 19th century in several phases, each of which arose from the financial situation. Even then, an inn was set up in the building. At that time the building was on the old Poststrasse on the outskirts of Wörsdorf near the Obertor .
In memory of the victorious Franco-Prussian War from 1870 to 1871, it was named “Pariser Hof” in 1871. In 1919, Rudolf Schmidt acquired the facility from the Grund family. In 1920 - due to the lost World War I - the name was changed to "Nassauer Hof". From 1920 to 1940 the Nassauer Hof was used for cabaret performances, village events, as a cinema, theater and the like.
In the last years of the Second World War , mainly Belarusian prisoners of war were quartered in the Nassauer Hof, who were forced to work as lumberjacks in the forests. Wörsdorf itself was captured by the Americans on March 27, 1945. In the following days, General Patton set up his headquarters in Wörsdorf for a few days. It can be assumed that he also used the Nassauer Hof. In the following months, a club of the American troops was housed in the Nassauer Hof. In 1948 part of the facility burned down, but was rebuilt in the following years.
From 1983 onwards, it was continuously expanded into today's pub and event hall.
