Chair set house

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Stuhlsatzenhaus was a traditional restaurant in the forest near Saarbrücken near the university grounds . The name is reminiscent of the wrench Nikolaus Stuhlsatz (1747–1793).

history

The former Stuhlsatzenhaus restaurant

The former restaurant and garden establishment was built on the Scheidt area on the border with St. Johann and Dudweiler . After 1750, the sovereign, Prince Wilhelm Heinrich, built a game gate here and commissioned a wren to prevent wood and game crimes. The building on the "Scheidterfrön" was initially called "Torhaus auf dem Scherberg" or "Scherberger Torhaus". After 1781, Nikolaus Stuhlsatz was a wrench, a brick maker who came from Differten .

With the French Revolution under Wilhelm Heinrich's son Ludwig , the game gate lost its importance. After Nikolaus' death, his son Johann Peter (1772–1815) lived in the building. With his death, the name Johann Friedrich Huber appears in the chronicles, whose descendants ran the chair set house until 2018. This line ended with the last owner, a daughter of Franz Huber (1898–1939).

Johann Friedrich Huber came from Dudweiler and in 1815 married the maid Magdalena Huy (1794-1858) from Scheidt, who had been adopted by the widow Stuhlsatz. In 1819 a "lease contract" was signed between the widow and the young couple for the "royal land in Scheidter Fröhn". It names 10 acres of meadows and fields that can be used for two talers annually and for an indefinite period. After the widow's death, the couple Friedrich Huber and his wife were designated as the new tenants by a government decree on May 19, 1832 regarding the legal descendants of the deceased couple Stuhlsatz. After more precise measurements, the area was set at 13 acres, the property tax was one thaler, four groschen and ten pfennigs. It also said: “The contract does not give rise to property rights to land”.

Johann Friedrich Huber died in 1852, four years later his wife Magdalena. They left six children behind, and Stuhlsatzenhaus's heir was the first-born Johann Huber. On June 27, 1870, he received permission "to run the gardening business for himself". This contract was transferred to his son Friedrich Huber in 1881. It was not until 1936, 117 years after the "lease contract", that a member of the family became the owner of the former forest district.

For generations of Saarbrücken residents, the Waldschenke Stuhlsatzenhaus was a popular destination for Sunday walks until after the Second World War. The “Maikuren”, during which all of St. Johann hiked to the Stuhlsatzenhaus on Ascension Day, were legendary . The May hike took the whole day. Until it was closed, it was also used as a place to stop for refreshments at the nearby university.

The street "Stuhlsatzenhaus" (formerly: "Stuhlsatzenhausweg") is named after the house.

In October 2017 it became known that the Saarland had bought the property. Extension buildings for the Helmholtz Center for Information Security (CISPA) are being built here .

The restaurant has been closed since the end of September 2018, and was demolished from July to September 2019.
