Hotel Zehnpfund, Cultural heritage monument in Thale, Germany
Hotel Zehnpfund stands as a large building near the train station, featuring approximately 120 rooms and suites across multiple floors.
The Magdeburg-Halberstadt Railway Company constructed this German hotel in 1863, marking the beginning of tourism development in the Harz region.
German writer Theodor Fontane created literary works during his stays at Hotel Zehnpfund between 1868 and 1882, setting parts of his novel Cécile there.
The building underwent multiple transformations, serving as a military hospital, orphanage, city administration office, and library throughout its existence.
During World War I, the hotel's balcony was temporarily converted into an operating room when the building functioned as a military medical facility.
