Hospice (Weißenburg)
The hospice is a building within the old town of Weißenburg in Bavaria in the central Franconian district of Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen . The postal address is Auf der Wied 9. The hospice is registered under monument number D-5-77-177-83 as an architectural monument in the Bavarian monument list.
The building is a two-storey, representative, monumental hipped roof building with a triangular gable and corner pilaster . In 1847 it was built in the style of a late classicist city palace by the pig dealer widow Katherina Wägemann. In 1892 the Catholic journeyman's association acquired the building and had it converted into a Catholic journeyman's hospice. In 1913, the hospice was redesigned and fundamentally expanded in the style of historicism based on plans by Max Hans Mayer. The annex is a two-storey half - timbered gable building from the early 19th century.
