Romanesque House in Bad Kösen (with Käthe Kruse doll exhibition)
 
As a monument on the Romanesque Road, the Romanesque House is today considered one of the oldest preserved stone buildings of a monastic outlying farm in central Germany. It was once part of a farm that was donated to the Cistercian monastery of Schulpforte by Bishop Udo I of Naumburg. Built of shell limestone between 1150 and 1175, the building served the monastery and later the Pforta State School as a farm building with stables, storage and living quarters for the following centuries.
 
Since 1955, the Romanesque House has housed a museum on the history of Bad Kösen and its immediate surroundings with changing exhibitions on cultural history topics and an exhibition on the Kösen toy factory PEBE, the manufacturer of plastic construction sets and toys in the GDR.
 
The permanent Käthe Kruse doll exhibition also commemorates Bad Kösen's most important citizen. The world-famous doll designer Käthe Kruse (1883-1968) lived and worked in Bad Kösen from 1912 to 1950. It was here that she began her professional activity as an entrepreneur, built her first doll workshops and developed more than fifteen different types of dolls. With more than 270 dolls, the Romanisches Haus currently has the second largest Käthe Kruse doll collection in Germany.
