The oldest part of the property is a half-timbered building wing on the courtyard side, which dates back to 1562 and has been largely preserved in its original design. The half-timbered facade is lavishly decorated. There are star, fan and sun patterns on the wooden legs. There are also ship throats and three wavebands . The threshold is provided with a Gothic inscription.

The front building is divided into two parts. The core of the southern part probably also dates from the 16th century. On the courtyard side, the remains of a multi-storey building can be seen here. The building, which has a gate passage, was renewed around 1720 and on the street side was given a new facade made of massive construction. The northern part of the building has a half-timbered facade. The compartments are provided with decorative lining.
