history
Tanneck was a small village west of what was then Eisenberg. There was a Vorwerk there in the 16th century . It was first mentioned as a manor from 1542. The owner was Rudolph von Kayn. 50 years later the house was owned by the Eisenberg locksmith Georg Neumeyer, who sold it to Johann Beyer, the mayor of the city. House Marshal Bose acquired it from Johann Georg Beyer in 1698. In 1707, after the death of Duke Christian von Sachsen-Eisenberg , his widow Sophie Marie acquired the palace as a retirement home. With her death in 1713, it passed into the possession of Justine von Schauroth, then to Engelberth Otto, Rath and Leibmedicus from Weißenfels , who owned it for eight years. Then Oberforstmeister von Mosel from Lausnitz bought it for his wife Elisabeth von Altbokkum. He also acquired land and forests for the castle and in 1731 received permission from Duke Friedrich II to name the place Friedrichstanneck. Until 1751 Doctor Gottlieb Friedrich Spindler is named as the owner, who sold it to Prince Johann Adolf von Sachsen-Gotha-Altenburg in the same year . He died in 1799 and bequeathed the castle to his daughter Johanna Adolfine Friederike, who had been married to Colonel Dragoon Johann Erdmann Siegmund von Schütz since 1783. She sold it to porcelain manufacturer Heinrich Ernst Mühlberg. His brother also owned a porcelain painting in Tanneck, which was apparently in the castle. Around 1900 the property belonged to the von Schroedel-Siemau family of publishers, today the Eisenberg housing company. As early as 1953, parts of the residential floor were converted into a district home museum. With the move in of the Society for Sport and Technology , the youth club and later the kindergarten, the basic conditions for the museum deteriorated. It was closed in 1980.
Castle gardens and tea houses used to be excursion destinations for the Eisenberg population. During the GDR era , the premises were rebuilt and repurposed as living space, museum and youth club. Since 1990 vacancy and vandalism have resulted in the building owned by the Eisenberger housing association being in a ruinous state.
