About this property

Old rectory - House Mathilda

A first-class holiday home in Saxon Switzerland. The historic, listed former parsonage in Papstdorf was built in 1900 and renovated in 2021–2022 by its new private owner, who transformed it into six modern and very comfortable holiday apartments. Garden sauna with a view of the Schrammsteine (fee applies).
Two magnificent holiday apartments—Haus Charlotte and Haus Mathilda—have been created as a duplex in the former sheep barn.
Enjoy the feeling of being connected to nature, the tranquility, and the view of the Schrammsteine.
You can have breakfast at the bakery across the street from Tuesday through Friday.
A ping-pong table in the garden is available for free use.
Dogs allowed upon request. The former parsonage is situated in a prominent location in the Orszentraum, below the church and above the village street, in the heart of Saxon Switzerland.
