history

The Konradsturm 1903, near the Alt-Wettinshöhe men's convalescent home

As early as the 15th century, the hilltop on the Zitzschewiger Flur, which was then known as the Landeskrone , was owned by the Meissen bishops , as were the nearby Hohenhaus and Bischofspresse . The name Wettins Höhe has been used for the summit since 1758 .

Up until the middle of the 19th century there was a winery with a vineyard and a winery on the Wettins Höhe . This belonged to the Kötzschenbrodaer pastor Johann Samuel Gottlob Flemming (1740-1827) and later to his heirs, the sons of Joh. Christian Gottlob, a Prussian judicial commissioner in Ortrand , and his brother, a lawyer in Oschatz . In addition to the residential and winegrower's house and various outbuildings, a fountain and a wine press as well as the vineyard, woodwork, field and newly cultivated wine country were documented in 1827.

A wine tavern was built on part of the property in 1858/1859 by owner Carl Gottlob Wackwitz. To do this, he added a dance hall to the house. In addition, he built the Conradsturm in the area , of which only remnants are preserved today.

In 1867, the landlord Carl Heinrich Berger expanded the tavern into a rather square restoration building, which is now the central building of the villa there ( House Wettinhöhe ). The so-called Himmelsleiter (the vineyard staircase to Wettinshöhe ), which was officially opened on July 21, 1867, was also created , which is also referred to as part of the Barkengasse and bridges 54 meters of altitude over a distance of 160 meters above ground. The wine bar license was extended to include the right to relax and the right to dispense beer and hot dishes.

In 1875 the gardener's house was built by August Große , the towed commercial extension of which was probably added in 1881 by the Ziller brothers.

1879/1880 of the Prussian upper pin captain and Privy let Alfred Piper (1814-1892) by the architect brothers Ziller , the 1875 building acquired for representative, he called the Castle Wettin height expand, among other things, created the bicuspid tower to the west and the transverse wing in the east. The surrounding wall on the valley side with corner turrets and the arched portal adorned with coat of arms with the initials AP and the year 1880 were also built . After it was initially used as the residence of the Reichstag member August Walter , the building burned down around 1890, after the reconstruction a restaurant moved into part of the rooms in 1891, a family boarding school in 1898, and from 1900 to 1903 Franz Ludwig Bauers (1857–1913; “ Zuckerbauer ”) Special institute for diabetics , which then moved to Heinrich-Zille-Straße 84 in Niederlößnitz .

In 1908 the property came under compulsory administration, in 1909 it belonged to the court architect Petzholtz. In 1915 owned by the Radeberg Savings and Advance Insurance Association, in 1916 it was taken over by the Allgemeine Ortskrankenkasse and made part of the neighboring Altwettinshöhe men's convalescent home ; in 1931 (1935) it was transferred to the State Insurance Institution of Saxony. This used it as a lung sanatorium, from 1940 it became a hospital for prisoners of war. After 1945 it served as a hospital, from 1960 as part of the Lößnitzhöhe tuberculosis sanatorium , then as an old people's home and from 1970 as a medical center.

In 1997 the Wettinshöhe was sold together with the Altwettinshöhe women's convalescent home to a merchant from North Rhine-Westphalia . At this point, moisture damage was found throughout the house due to a leaky roof. The new owner had the villa extensively renovated. Among other things, the ceiling stucco and the wooden doors with brass fittings were restored according to old findings. The house now houses apartments. The Altwettinshöhe property is also divided into several parts and the other buildings are used for living.

In 2020, the owner sold the Wettinshöhe in an auction for 3.5 million euros. This was the starting bid, there was only one anonymous bidder.

The nearby street Alt-Wettinshöhe, which leads to the former women's convalescent home Altwettinshöhe, was named after the mountain top of Wettinshöhe.
