In addition to forests and agricultural areas, basalt cones determine the landscape around Schafhausen and its core community. The Felda also rises here in the surrounding area. The country road 2621 also passes south of Erbenhausen and connects the village with traffic.
history
The place was first mentioned in a document on September 16, 1031. At first the village belonged to the Fulda monastery , then the lords changed more often. The place later belonged to the back court in the Lichtenberg office in the Duchy of Saxony-Eisenach and later Saxony-Weimar-Eisenach .
In 1634, during the Thirty Years War , Croatians burned the village completely down. In 1898 there was another big fire. In 1902 a new church was inaugurated, which was built as a neo-Gothic building in the "Scottish style" according to plans by the Meiningen court building councilor Karl Behlert . 177 people live in the district in 2012.
