The Einhardhaus is one of the most iconic half-timbered houses in the historic city center of Seligenstadt, Germany. This richly decorated building, dating from 1596, is known for its ornate façade, wooden oriel windows, and the legend that explains the town's name. The current half-timbered house dates from 1596, as evidenced by the inscriptions on the façade. It is a prime example of late German Renaissance half-timbering, characterized by lavish ornamentation and a striking corner oriel window. Although the house was built centuries after his death, it is named after Einhard (c. 770–840), the biographer of Charlemagne and founder of the monastery in Seligenstadt. The oriel window bears an inscription referencing the legend of Einhard and Emma (Charlemagne's daughter). According to legend, Charles recognized his daughter here after a long separation, after which he exclaimed: "Selig sei die Stadt genannt, da ich meine Tochter Emma wiederfand" ("Blessed be the city called where I found my daughter Emma again"), which would explain the name Seligenstadt.

It is an important nature reserve located directly next to the "Hofgut Patershausen".

For about 15 years now, the approximately 140-year-old former "workers' house" at the Patershausen estate has been inhabited again. The building was lovingly and meticulously restored over several years, striving to be as true to its original state as possible – fantastic! It has since become a real eye-catcher.

It's below the castle.

Beautiful old lower gate in Dreieichenhain. Beautiful old town.

Around 1880, the "workers' house" was built at the Patershausen estate in Heusenstamm for the distiller and other employees of the tenant farmer. The Polish seasonal workers, employed there from March 1st to October 31st, lived in the attic of the long building to the left of the main gate. On a floor plan, it is referred to as a day laborer's house.

When it was built around 1880, the house was intended for farmworkers who worked on the Patershäuser farm and for seasonal workers. Since the 1970s, it had been a lost place and threatened with decay. After several years of renovation and reconstruction, it has been shining in new splendor since 2011 and is finally serving as a residential home again. A true gem.

Lots of beautiful roots, wet leaves and sometimes a squirrel
