Brachbach in 2003 remains a tiny hamlet of maybe a dozen people and a
few farms. There at Brachbach No.7 is the farm owned by Zellhoefer's
for about 150 years beginning in 1696.
Might be a tiny hamlet, but Mani snapped 2 sign-pics!
<s>!
This picture was identified only as
"Brachbach". Might it be that behind the fence is
another view of the same farmhouse shown below?
This photo on an old postcare shows the Brachbach7 farm home
sometime after 1856 and before 1900, showing the Eberlein family which
owned the farm at that time.
This photo taken in 2003 is clearly the same house, showing
some major renovations, and a bit more "citified". Today
one can drop in and buy a stein of Germany's good beer. I need to
ask Mani if it is now a Gasthaus?
I've no doubt the this is the very same home as the one above, just
100+ years later!
This looks like an old barn? Maybe it was actually the
farmhouse back in 1696? If so, the house above might be newer?
In the GGZ autobbiography the old home was described as a
"rambling rock house".
Now both buildings....
Another scene, but I haven't quite figured out just what
we're seeing here - looks like house and barn from the other side?
This looks like the barn from another viewpoint.
