    The Goldene Höhe mountain inn was founded in 1844 as a simple refreshment stop on the summit of the Gohilg. The tenant Friedrich Traugott Baum later expanded it into a wooden house with a wonderful view. In 1864 a larger building with a hotel and restaurant was built. For many decades, the Golden Heights was a well-known and popular destination. After the cessation of passenger traffic on the Windbergbahn, the number of visitors decreased and the inn was closed in 1965. The building complex was officially closed in 1967 and later demolished.

    Except for 2 stone pillars, nothing remains of the once so well-known and popular "Ball-Establishment" on the Golden Heights. I think that with the cancellation of the Windbergbahn, many visitors were withdrawn from the innkeepers and so it had to be closed in 1965. If no one does anything in an older building, decay is quickly inevitable. Too bad, only pictures in such a place with a wonderful view at the top.
