To make a day of it
Kammergut Lohmen stands in Lohmen (Landkreis Sächsische Schweiz-Osterzgebirge), in Saxony, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. Recorded dating: 16th century. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
The Kammergut Lohmen today consists of two wings, in Saxony, remnants of what was once a much larger estate. The older wing, built in 1524 on a rocky ridge above the Wesenitz river, long served as the administrative seat of the Hohnstein office. The estate passed through the hands of the Schönburg-Glauchau family, several Saxon noble families and eventually the Electorate itself, before a number of buildings, including the manor house and farm structures, were demolished after 1945. The surviving buildings now house the local council offices and a library.
What to know
- The site today houses municipal offices and a library rather than a museum open for visits.
- No opening hours or admission fees are available.
- The library building includes a modern glass and metal extension contrasting with the Renaissance wing.
- The ensemble is listed as a Kulturdenkmal in Saxony.
- A visit is mainly limited to viewing the historic buildings from outside.
