At the beginning of the 19th century, Hof Trages became a meeting place and retreat for many people who later became well-known and famous and who were associated with German Romanticism. These included the lawyer and later Prussian minister Friedrich Carl von Savigny (1779–1861), who had inherited the farm from his father. During a trip to Jena, Friedrich Carl von Savigny became friends with Clemens Brentano (1778–1842), who was the same age as him. Karoline von Günderrode fell in love with the later minister in 1799. After 1800, Friedrich Carl von Savigny taught at the University of Marburg. His first Marburg student was Jacob Grimm, through whom his brother Wilhelm Grimm joined the circle. In 1804, Savigny married Kunigunde Brentano, the older sister of Clemens and Bettina Brentano. In 1805, Savigny also met Achim von Arnim. In 1811, Bettina Brentano married Achim von Arnim. As Bettina von Arnim, she became an important representative of German Romanticism.
