    Built in 1908, the Wilischbaude originally served as a popular destination for hikers, cyclists, locals and skiers and was easily accessible via a road from Hermsdorf.

    Information:

    With the opening of the Lockwitztalbahn railway line between Niedersedlitz and Kreischa, the spa town experienced an unprecedented influx of visitors. The foundation stone of the Wilischbaude was laid on October 19, the topping-out ceremony on November 14, and the opening ceremony on January 9, 1909. The inn operated until 1961. The Wilischbaude, over 113 years old, stood empty for a third of its existence.
