The entire roofs and facades in the village Brennersgrün are all covered with slate from the region. This place looks very mystical in contrast to the dark facades, the warmly designed, colorful front gardens appear with full flower power. For me pre-in and around Brenner green the most rustic route from the entire Rennsteig. This of course has to do with the seclusion of the former restricted area, nature was able to unfold undisturbed here in the so-called green band of Germany.

The place was first mentioned in a document in 1187. Slate quarrying, forestry work and limited agricultural use of the land around the village as well as tourism (except for the GDR era) were and are the sources of income for the citizens.
On January 22, 1994, the incorporation to Lehesten took place.

Hiking

My highlight on the Steinbach am Wald to Blankenstein stage: the Rennsteighaus in Brennersgrün!!!
Cold drinks, coffee, tea, small snacks for a donation. Very well maintained, clean, free (!) toilets and showers. And all of this is managed on a voluntary basis. A thousand thanks to the Brennersgrüner Waldfinken.
