Tips from the Community

April 12, 2026, Burg Rabis (Das Luftschiff)

In the middle of the 17th century, the inn located on a trade route and the farm belonging to the Rabis manor were first mentioned in a document. From 1850 onwards, the guesthouse "Luftschiff" existed here, which quickly became a popular excursion destination. After a fire in 1905, the restaurant was rebuilt and existed in this form until 1970. It subsequently came into the possession of the Carl Zeiss company, which had the guesthouse demolished in 1974. https://www.literaturland-thueringen.de/artikel/novalis-wanderweg-rundweg-von-drackendorf-nach-schloeben/burg-rabis-ehemaliges-luftschiff/

Since 1948, a memorial stone in the cemetery commemorates the 30 concentration camp prisoners murdered during a death march that the SS led through the town on April 11, 1945. They had gone into hiding, were tracked down, and subsequently shot. Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gro%C3%9Fl%C3%B6bichau

In a document from 1287, the church was first mentioned as St. Bartholomew's Church, along with its patron saint, Bartholomew. The nave, triumphal arch, and entrance portal are of Romanesque origin. The original church building still exists today in the form of the nave. The first church still exists today as a simple building. It has a flat wooden ceiling and no tower. The church is entered from the north side. On the north wall is a Romanesque portal with a carved inscription naming Plebanus, the parish priest, Heinrich von Lucka, and the year 1347.

The settlement around the site of the former Luftschiff inn is located at an altitude of 405 metres above sea level on an old road that leads from the Saale valley up over the high plateau of the Wöllmisse mountain range into the eastern outskirts of Jena.
