Max Klinger (18.2.1857-4.7.1920), the famous Leipzig graphic artist, painter and sculptor, acquired a vineyard with a vineyard house in Großjena in 1903. Together with his then partner, the writer Elsa Asenijeff, he spent many happy days on the vineyard. In the years between 1903 and 1920, he created numerous etchings and a large number of drawings, watercolors and oil paintings here. From 1909 he had the upper vineyard house converted into a comfortable residence. In 1910 he met 17-year-old Gertrud Bock (1893-1932) here, who posed for him together with her sister Ella. After suffering a stroke in 1919, Klinger moved his main residence to Großjena and married Gertrud Bock, with whom he had already lived for several years. On July 4, 1920, Klinger died on the "Klingerberg", where he also found his final resting place. The permanent exhibition of the Klinger House provides a comprehensive insight into the life and work of the artist. Highlights of the exhibition are the two large tiled stoves, which were designed and shaped by Klinger himself.
