Architecture and history

The two-story narrow half-timbered house was built around 1680. It was later rebuilt on a larger scale. Nevertheless, in the overall view with the surrounding buildings, it is assessed as having an important testimonial value in terms of monument technology. Ornaments such as pyramid beam heads can be found on the framework . Around 1900 a shop was added on the ground floor.

At the end of the 20th century there was still an expressionist advertising display on the west side of the upper floor , which was considered rare. Currently (as of 2013) the boom is not on the house. Traces of its fortification can still be seen on the facade.
