history
The residential and commercial building with the address Am Markt 5 in Weißenfels was built in 1553 by the court councilor and Thuringian governor Christoph von Werther . It soon received the status of a free house and was thus exempt from all duties and taxes. The first renovation work took place in 1592. The special privilege was withdrawn from the house in 1673 and given to the neighboring house, the Sächsischer Hof . Due to the constant changes of ownership and functions, the building has had different names over the years:
- electoral escort
- ducal office building
- Forgery shears
- District Court or Degree Court (1644)
- Zastrov's house (1654)
- Schmidt's house (1660)
- Farmer's House (1703)
- Mangold's House (1717)
- Persdorff'er house
Martin Gregor-Dellin lived in this building from 1947 to 1958 . Today there is an ice cream parlor on the ground floor.
