        Saale-Unstrut was notarized as a wine region as early as 998, but the Pforta monastery really started to grow from 1138 onwards. The old Cistercians plowed the area and turned the landscape into layers - always true to their maxims, the “vita activa” with a balanced ratio of “ora et labora”. In 1540 Peter II was the last abbot to leave the monastery with his followers. Others came for that; some famous personalities like Klopstock, Fichte or Nietzsche. Because in the course of the Reformation, the Saxon Duke Moritz replaced the abbot with a rector and instead of wine, classics were now read; the monastery became a princely school.
        The vineyards, on the other hand, were converted into so-called half-mountains: one part for the farming farmers, the other for the princes in Dresden.
        That was the case in Prussia in 1899. A separate “State Viticulture Administration” took up the fight against the pest. This research institute was located in the hall houses, there were test areas in Naumburg Paradise and on the Goseck Dechantenberg.
        The winery at the Saalhäuser recovered only with difficulty from the devastation of World War II. In 1952, all of the former Prussian possessions were combined in the “Nationally Owned Naumburg Winery” and things were looking up.
