The slogan in the cancellation
100 Years / Health Resort / Engineering School / Glass Industry
Ilmenau (1565 ft.), noted for its technical school, porcelain and glass factories, had approximately 14,000 inhabitants in 1938. Situated on the River Ilm, it was a favorite summer and winter sport resort during the Third Reich. The view tower at the summit of the Kickelhahn (2825 ft.) was open in the afternoon only. A fee was required for entry, and refreshments were served. About 200 paces to the northwest stood the Goethe-Hauschen, a wooden hut where Goethe frequently spent the night, and on the wall of which he wrote “Uber alien Gipfeln ist Ruh,” (The summit is the best place to rest) on 6 September 1780. The hut standing in 1938 was erected after the first one burned down in 1870.
