Eisgeist

Eisgeist (凝然意地 (イスジエースト), Isujeisuto; lit. German for "Ice Soul", Japanese for "Frozen Spirit") is the ancestral seat and residence of the Von Brandt family, a family of Quincy, nestled in the countryside of northwestern Germany. It has been renovated multiple times throughout its' centuries long history, from a simple stone fortress to the ornately designed, palatial home that it is now. The home was more or less untouched during the Quincy race's near extermination at the hands of Soul Society's Gotei 13, as the fighting had been a long ways from the Von Brandt manor. It is presumed the Soul Society failed to locate the home all those years ago, and to this day, are unaware of its' exact location due to certain methods employed by the surviving Von Brandt descendants. Even in the tragic decline of the Quincy and the home's resident family, this rural palace is a symbol of better times, of a thriving Quincy race.
