"Schulersberg" is the name given to a former mountain garden on the Stadtberg hill south of Hildburghausen. The first documented use of the area dates back to 1785. At that time, a gentleman from Gussio built a garden or summer house on the lower terrace, consisting of a stone base, plastered timber framing, and a tiled roof. This so-called "Gussio House" stood out from other buildings on the Stadtberg hill primarily due to its loggia, a terrace integrated into the ground floor and framed by arcades.

Hildburghausen City Museum
Highlight • Historical Site
The building itself represents a good piece of architectural history in Hildburghausen: a city wall tower from the 14th century and a town house from the 16th century were later connected to one another, further extensions and superstructures were added, and this conglomerate of different structures, which extends from the city wall part over a half-timbered arcade that extends to the classicist facade wonderfully forms a beautiful, closed whole. From 1809 to 1849 the building served as the Thurn und Taxis post office, hence its name.
Hildburghausen's history and stories can also be told by the many exhibits in the museum's permanent exhibition.
