Rittergut Aue, Manor house in Wanfried, Germany

Rittergut Aue stands as a Renaissance building with a red sandstone base, featuring a round-arched portal and two distinct timber-framed upper floors.

Built in 1576 by Reinhard von Eschwege, the manor house was destroyed by Croatian riders during the Thirty Years' War in 1637 and later reconstructed.

The estate represents traditional German nobility architecture, demonstrating the social hierarchy and construction methods of the 16th and 17th centuries.

The property extends over 12,000 square meters, encompassing nine buildings, including the main house and various 19th-century agricultural structures.

The German Monument Protection Foundation recently granted 117,000 euros for preservation work on the roof and timber frame structures.
