description

The three-story flat gable roof building with four window axes was named after the Buck family who owned it.

It has rich facade paintings with corner pilasters and elaborate window frames, which are said to come from Asam students when they stopped in Wolfratshausen on their way to Italy. Depicted in the middle are St. Nikolaus , the patron saint of the raftsmen (with the inscription "St. Nicolaus. As a strange patron I drove into water"), the eye of God, St. Nepomuk, the bridge saint and a painted high water indicator since 1853. In that year the highest level so far was measured at 80 cm.

The house consists of two buildings, which are officially mentioned as early as 1633. The front house is almost always owned by raft masters and has the original house name "beim Reichart". Fish sellers lived in the back house until the middle of the 19th century, hence the house name "beim Fischerdickl". In 1895 the plumber Josef Buck bought the front building; In 1935 his son also bought the back house.
