No. 70 before 1928, with the gable side open to the street, inside a butter, egg and cheese shop. To the left is the cottage garden (mural at Bahnhofstrasse 12 )

Probably built in the late 17th century, typical pastoral and workhouse was until 1839 in the municipal property, was therefore up to the church planting due to the then new Saxon Municipal Code as a commons of Altgemeinde the "nineties".

The small rural house, with its plastered gable with a width of two window axes and two arched windows facing the street, formed the western end of the Angers of the Kötzschenbrodaer Unterdorf. Today it is in an island location, as its former neighboring houses have now been demolished.

The eaves sides are plastered at the bottom, the upper floor consists of half-timbering, on top there is a gable roof. The building, which used to be four window axes long, was lengthened a little towards the Elbe, although this extension was not concealed, but was made recognizable by a successful, transverse wooden cladding. Today's window formats as well as the clay brick construction in the interior correspond to the historical model.

After more than ten years of vacancy and dilapidation, the shepherd's house was professionally and historically refurbished by the owner of the landscape architecture office and carefully expanded in a “symbiosis of historical building culture with modern needs”, for which she received the Radebeul builder award in 1999. The layout of the Angergarten, located in front of the eaves side, in the style of a typical local cottage garden , was awarded a special prize for open space and garden design by the Radebeul Builders' Prize in 2000 for its setting of standards .
