history

The building was erected around 1600. The upper floor and the attic floors were rebuilt around 1700, presumably in 1693, as indicated by the year “1693” engraved in the apex . Since then it has served as a residential and commercial building.

architecture

The gabled house has a massive, sandstone ground floor. Above this, in half-timbered construction, an upper floor and a gable protruding over two floors are connected. The individual floors are visually separated from each other by cornices , especially the ground floor from the slightly overhanging upper floor. On the ground floor there are two rectangular windows and an arched portal with the year "1693" in the apex . The framework is provided with post - Gothic half - timbered ornaments, including curly, partly nested Andrew's crosses (so-called firebock), quarter and semicircular shapes and crossed curly diamonds. A gable roof forms the end of the house .
