Sächsischer Hof, Heritage monument and timber-framed house in Thuringia, Germany.

The Sächsischer Hof is a hotel building at the start of the Georgstraße pedestrian zone in Meiningen, between the old town and the English Garden. Its present appearance dates from a 1900 renovation by court building officer Eduard Fritze and master builder Otto Schubert, who added two storeys with timber framing, decorated balconies, small pointed turrets and Art Nouveau window frames. The building is a protected monument.

The house was built following medieval construction methods that had established themselves across Germany with regional variations over centuries. It went through different uses from a residential building to a trading house, and was later expanded and converted into an inn.

The hotel's guestbook, kept over two centuries, lists Richard Wagner, Johannes Brahms, Franz Liszt and Max Reger, who performed in Meiningen. From 1808 to 1825 the building housed the town's post office, and the restaurant Die Posthalterei recalls that postal past. The rustic Kutscherstube, named for coachmen, keeps the inn's traditional hospitality.

The hotel stands at the start of the Georgstraße pedestrian zone, a few hundred metres from the station and the Staatstheater. It has 37 rooms, 3 suites and several conference rooms, plus the restaurant Die Posthalterei, the Kutscherstube and a café with terrace. Arrival is direct via the B 19 from Eisenach or the A 71 exit Meiningen-Nord.

From 17 to 19 October 2023 the hotel served as the official residence of German Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier during his "Ortszeit Deutschland" programme; a suite with a balcony facing the Georgstraße became his office, and the presidential standard was flown from that balcony for three days.
