About this apartment rental
Train House
This vacation cottage offers everything you need in a compact space: a living room with a dining area and a small kitchenette (ceramic cooktop, refrigerator with freezer compartment), a modern bathroom with a large real-glass shower, and a loft-style sleeping area on the second level with a cozy double bed that can be converted into two separate beds upon request. From there, you can look straight up at the sky through the glass skylight!
The historic railroad station, a listed building, is approximately 120 years old and built of solid red clinker brick. In addition to the glass skylight, the white ground-level windows ensure a light-filled living space, and the underfloor heating keeps the atmosphere very pleasant.
The station house is located next to the train station, and of course our guests also have access to a cozy spot surrounded by greenery—right among the old station linden trees!
Red clinker brick, light-filled rooms, and huge linden trees in the garden! We fell in love with the old DROYSSIGER STATION right from the start! It’s a house steeped in history—full of charm, romance, and above all, soul!
Built in 1897 by the Royal Prussian Railway Administration, the building served for approximately 100 years. In 1999, the so-called “sugar railway” line between Zeitz and Camburg was finally shut down. The stations lost their purpose.
The railroad once brought economic prosperity, particularly to the regional coal and sugar industries, but the transport of workers and passengers also played a major role. After the end of the GDR and the accompanying economic structural changes, rail-based logistics were no longer needed, and the line became increasingly unprofitable. Today, the old railroad right-of-way is home to the Zuckerbahn Bike Trail, which connects to the Elster Bike Trail
and also to the Central German Bike Eight.
After the Droyßig train station had stood vacant for 12 years, we purchased it at auction in 2011 and renovated it. But it wasn’t just the historic building that drew us to Droyßig. We’ve also grown fond of the town itself: its historic architecture, the many horses, the forest with its bike and hiking trails, and Droyßig’s nature and wellness offerings. Here, you can let your mind wander, unwind—and find peace! We now operate two vacation apartments. We’ve already hosted guests from over 30 countries. This has led to many interesting encounters—sometimes funny, sometimes quirky, and sometimes educational! And the train station? It’s somehow back in operation again, now welcoming travelers from all over the world.
Come visit us and be our guest. We look forward to seeing you!
