The building complex

The house, built between 1894 and 1898, is designed in the style of the Italian Renaissance and is based on designs by the architects von Bok and von Sauter. Part of the city fortifications previously ran at this point.

It is an extensive multi-wing complex with a representative entrance portal in Olgastraße. The sculptor Georg Rheineck has modeled a lion on each side of the wide flight of stairs . The building complex has four floors and a loft and has a usable area of ​​around 2400 m². The facade is made of sandstone. The rows of windows on the second floor are designed as arched windows, between the third and fourth floors a ledge runs around the entire building. Next to the portal, the allegorical figures of Themis and Dike greet visitors to the house. They symbolize the protective and punitive justice and come from the workshop of the court sculptor Karl Federlin . In the center above the portal there is a coat of arms cartouche , which is a modification of the Baden-Württemberg coat of arms (antlers and running lions). The coat of arms is framed with floral ornaments.

Six columns, which extend over two floors, divide the entrance area. On top of the attic are the statues of women created by the sculptors Donndorf and Bausch as symbols of fear of God , steadfastness , peacefulness , truthfulness , wisdom and prudence .
