The children's home was built by Paul Wegmann and is located in the Zeitz Forest. There are numerous myths surrounding these buildings. On the one hand, the children are said to have literally suffered there; on the other hand, there is talk of the first drug attempts, especially with dipiperone.
Exact statements and key data on this property can hardly be found.
It was probably used by the Russian armed forces, which explains the large adjacent exercise area.
