Putzenreuth (desert)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Putzenreuth desert is a desert near Gefrees , a town in the Upper Franconian district of Bayreuth .

Putzenreuth was located south of Gefrees, about 800 meters south-east of the Grünstein castle ruins and was first mentioned in the Henneberg fiefdom register in 1317/32 . The castle was first mentioned on May 11, 1361. With this opening certificate , the Nuremberg burgrave Friedrich allowed the Hirschbergers Hans and Arnold to build a castle "on the stone, called the green stone near Putzenreuth". That was the last mention of the place. The name has been handed down in field names such as Putzenwiese and Putzenberg. Hans Hofner dealt with the situation in Putzenreuth.
