Architecture and history

The core of the three-storey half - timbered house probably dates back to around 1600. Both the arched doorway on the north side of the house and the arrangement of the windows point to such a period. The facade is plastered in the style of late classicism , whereby the decorated eaves remained striking. In the 19th century the courtyard was rebuilt.

On the courtyard side there is an elongated courtyard wing, also built in half-timbered construction.

Currently (as of 2017) there are 6 artists and artisans in the property (glass blowing, felting, ceramic workshop, jewelry workshop, paper workshop and fashion studio) as well as a cabaret.
