description
Special mention is made of the verticals, i.e. the side elevations and the central axis, which, according to the monument topography, are “ emphasized in terms of craftsmanship and design ”.
- Side elevation
The three-storey stone building is optically divided by two side elevations, which, according to the monument topography, are “ emphasized in terms of craftsmanship and design ”.
On the first floor of the two side projections there are triplet windows with “ elaborate window frames with set balusters and pilasters ”. The parapets of the windows, which are grouped into groups of three , have been fitted with balusters . The two posts that divide the group of three windows were designed as pilasters .
According to the monument topography, these window groups have been " gabled and provided with profiled window roofs ". A segmental arch-like ornamental gable is located above the central window of the group of three windows , while the other two windows flank the central window and have a simple cornice as window canopies.
- Central axis
In the middle of the two houses there is a double entrance with a skylight . The double entrance consists of " ornamented front doors " and leads to the staircase with a mosaic floor and turned balusters. The stairwell leads to the individual apartments with “ paneled apartment doors ”.
The central axis not only has the aforementioned entrance, but according to the monument topography was “ emphasized in terms of craftsmanship and design ”. Windows with set balusters can be seen above the main entrance on both the first and second floors. A blown ornamental gable was attached to the top of the central axis .

Art historical significance
The double house built in 1875 by foreman Christian Zillhardt is an example of a residential building “ for higher demands ”, whereby according to the monument topography the vertical axes, i.e. the side elevations and the central axis, are “ emphasized in terms of craftsmanship and design ”. The building is one of the few surviving examples of architecture with a “ sophisticated ” facade design in the style of the historicist neo-renaissance and was therefore placed under monument protection.
