For this place, I found the following on Wikipedia:
After 1945, a children's home, called “Children's Village”, was built above the village. It took in orphans from East Prussia. Small families were assigned bungalow-like houses with the proviso that they could take in orphans in addition to their own children. Additional rooms were available for community life. During the GDR era, the facility was expanded to include the “Weidmanns Heil” restaurant and used as a recreation area by the “local recreation” interest group of the hunting and nature reserve in the Artern district. Numerous tourists from the GDR were able to access the Kyffhäuser recreation area from the bungalow estate. An attempt by an investor to develop the system further after German reunification failed. Today the restaurant is empty and shows signs of decay.
