The Falkersche Hof is a listed half-timbered house in Wiesbaden-Frauenstein .

The gable- facing house at Georgstraße 24 stands on a two-storey massive substructure with a gate below as an entrance. On the first floor there are two side entrances and above that two more floors made of half-timbered. The roof bears a crooked hip facing the street .

Presumably, a house was first built here around 1330, when half-timbered houses for noble castle men were built around Frauenstein Castle . The building was first mentioned in 1571 when the Counts of Schönborn were lords of the castle and the house burned down. It was rebuilt in 1573. It should have belonged to the bishop of Mainz .

From the end of the 17th century it was owned by the respected Köhler family from Frauenstein. Wendelin Köhler, Hofmann at the Sommerberger Hof , died there in 1698 at an old age.
