With a beautiful view of the small lake, you can really take a break here.

----

The listed building "Antonienhütte" from 1913 is a shelter and part of the dense, historic hiking trail network around Bad Elster. The Antonienhütte is located above the trout pond (also called the hunter's pond) and was acquired by the city of Bad Elster in 2023.

The property is open to the public due to the supra-regional hiking trail (Vogtland Panoramaweg) that runs above it.

The Antonienhütte already had massive damage at the time the property was acquired.

Due to the enormous financial outlay for securing and renovating this important cultural monument, the previous private owners of the area around the trout pond were unable to carry out appropriate renovation measures.

However, the condition of the Antonienhütte has now deteriorated so much due to waterlogging and rot that its stability can no longer be guaranteed with simple safety measures. In addition to the impending loss of a cultural monument that is important for the Saxon State Spa, this of course also represents a threat to public use.

In consultation with the State Office for Monument Preservation in Dresden and the Lower Monument Preservation Authority of the Vogtland District Office, the work required to preserve the shelter was precisely defined.

This includes:

Careful removal of the old wooden shingles as well as the supporting battens and the damaged round timbers
New installation of missing and damaged round timbers, especially in the area in contact with the ground, using debarked, naturally grown round timbers in accordance with the monument preservation authority
Shoeing of the round timber support feet with flakes in this area
Sealing of the roof using new roof battens, formwork and a durable titanium-zinc roof covering.

With the measures described, the preservation of this important monument in the ensemble of other shelters surrounding Bad Elster can be ensured.

The total expenditure for these measures amounts to 22,567 euros net.

The renovation measures were completed in December 2024.
