The Sophienruhe

Where solitude was once celebrated

The Sophienruhe

Between 1812 and 1947 a small structure stood here called the "Cottage of Solitude". Over time it was renamed after the wife of Conrad von Andlau, Sophie, and became the "Peace of Sophie"

The building bore the inscription "Reiche Deinem Freundenbecher holde Einsamkeit jedem deiner Freunde so oft er diese Stelle betritt". It was newly added during the renovation of the garden on 1812.
