Neumarkt Gotha

Highlight • Settlement

The building was opened in 1800 as a free school for needy children and is named after the founder of this school, Josias Friedrich Christian Löffler. A Sunday school for craftsmen was housed here from 1802-1805, and in 1912/13 it housed the measuring house of the Gotha municipality. The German Red Cross used the Löfflerhaus from 1936 to 1990.
