Architecture and history

The building complex consisted of a half-timbered house built at the end of the 18th century with a very wide gable facing the passage. It was a gable-independent double house , which is rare in this form. A similarly designed building with the house Neustädter Kirchhof 2, 3 had already been demolished. On the narrower north side of the house there was a smaller two-story, eaves half-timbered building, which served as a residential building and storage building. This part of the building dates from the 18th century. He had a wide position of the stand and was simply presented largely without decorations. To the west of this building was a newer, still preserved building, which separated the house from the passage.

In 1998 the building complex , which had been infested with dry rot, was demolished due to a risk of collapse due to a demolition order .
