Carlsbau

Carlsbau is an architectural structure in Glottertal that sits on a hillside in the Black Forest region. The building features elegant social rooms, music chambers, and billiard facilities that were originally designed for therapeutic use.

The building was constructed between 1913 and 1914 as part of the Glotterbad Sanatorium, marking the start of a new era for medical treatments in the region. It grew during the 20th century into a recognized center for treating rheumatic and metabolic conditions.

The building's name honors Carl Isenberg, the property owner who shaped the establishment. Visitors can still see the refined social rooms and music chambers that reflect the social character of the original health facility.

Today the building operates as the Thure-von-Uexküll Clinic, offering specialized care for patients with psychosomatic conditions. The hilltop location provides a quiet setting that supports the healing process.

The building gained national fame as the filming location for the popular German television series 'Die Schwarzwaldklinik' starting in 1984. This role in popular culture introduced it to a wide audience across the country.
