Rittnerthof

Welcome to

The Rittnerthof on the Turmberg was an estate, riding stables and refuge during the Nazi era. It combines agricultural tradition, Art Nouveau architecture and local resistance history. The Rittnerthof on the Turmberg was once an agricultural estate with margravial fruit trees. In the 20th century, the farm developed under Eduard Merton into the first equestrian farm - including an Art Nouveau villa. Fritz Gebhardt acquired it in 1933. During the Nazi era, Hannelore Hansch offered protection to the persecuted and was a center of spiritual opposition. Today, the Rittnerthof remains a living testimony to regional history.
