Bracht was first recorded in 1241 as
"Brachtfa" mentioned. After years of property disputes
between the Archbishop of Mainz and
the Landgrave of Hesse was Bracht
“Stately”, i.e. in the Langsdorf Treaty of 1263
awarded to the landgrave. The landgrave
Hunting lodge from 1721 in Bracht was used, among others
“Service yards” in the region, the landgraves
and princes in addition to hunting in the castle forest
also as a secret conference venue for their political
Decisions. Today live in the Rauschenberger
District brings around 950 people.

In winter the water lily pond doesn't look like much. But many water lilies will bloom again this year.

These ponds invite you to linger and observe. There are plenty of frogs, tadpoles, and water lilies in an idyllic setting. A beautiful forest path leads past these ponds.
