The Hellhaus survived the Second World War, but was completely destroyed by arson in 1988. In the following years, a temporary roof was put on. The Hellhaus is also known as the third castle in Moritzburg. It is considered an important example of baroque park design in Germany and the last of its kind in Europe. After years of vacancy and decay, the start of renovation work by the state-owned company Sachsenforst was publicly announced at the end of 2020. Large areas in the surrounding area were cleared, creating, among other things, a line of sight to Moritzburg Castle. The roof of the Hellhaus has already been reconstructed, and the facade on one side of the octagon already gives a glimpse of the future design.
