Saalfeld/Thuringia, Dr. Hüther Private Golf Course. (1930 - 1945)
In 1930 Morrison designed the private Golf Course for Dr. Hüther at Saalfeld/Thuringia in Central Germany. At Saalfeld golfers played on a nine-hole layout with crossing fairways; there were only six-holes but by playing three holes from different angles (tees) golfers were able to play nine-holes.
From the architectural point of view Green number 3, also used as number 8, was the most interesting green as German golf architect Bernhard von Limburger reported after having played the course at Saalfeld. This green was first approached from below, than from above, first from the wide side of the green, then from the narrow side of the green.
The course was closed down after 1945 when the Hüther family had to leave Russian occupied Thuringia losing their property including the famous family owned chocolate factory “Mauxion”.
