N.B. reporting of the edit history is currently fairly unclear and misleading. Most edits made to specimens appear as a pair of 'add' and 'delete' entries, which may not be together in the list. There are also often 'minor' edits, which are made automatically (rather than due to user activity), for example to merge synonym names.

Carl Hausknecht was a co-founder the Thuringian Botanical Society in 1882.
In 1896 he founded the herbarium Hausknecht. It was initially located in Weimar and is now part of the Institute of Botany of the special University of Jena. So surely as you say this specimen of 1883 must be from Jena in Thüringen.

Thank you. I've updated the locality and added details to Haussknecht's entry.
