District Court Street 13 (Kronach)
The building at Amtsgerichtsstrasse 13 is a listed building in the old town of the Upper Franconian town of Kronach in Bavaria .
history
The originally two-storey hipped roof building was built in the years 1719-21 as a caste office of the Bamberg Monastery , which Kronach belonged to until the beginning of the 19th century. The plans for this probably come from Johann Dientzenhofer . Above the entrance portal of the building is a sandstone relief created by Johann Dümlein with the coat of arms of the Bamberg prince-bishop Lothar Franz von Schönborn , during whose reign the construction took place.
With the secularization of the bishopric in 1802/03, the building and the city passed into the ownership of the Electorate of Bavaria and probably served as the royal Bavarian rent office from January 1, 1806 . In 1894 a second floor was added to the building; before the beginning of World War I , an extension was built on the west side facing away from Amtsgerichtsstrasse.
Today the city's tax office is located in the building .
