Black Eagle Eibach (Nuremberg)
The Black Eagle is a historic building in the center of Eibach , incorporated into Nuremberg since 1922 . It is considered to be one of the oldest inns outside of Nuremberg's old town. Formerly an inn, it has now been converted into an office building.
history
- In 1650 the Black Eagle was built on two floors.
- In 1877 it was extended to the rear and in 1892 two more floors upwards.
- Until 1997 it was an inn and guesthouse with a subsequent beer garden. Then it stood empty until construction began in 2014 and fell into disrepair.
- In 2017 it was reopened as an office building.

Dendrochronological examination
Exploratory report sub-areas of facade and interiors by Johann Geitner . To further clarify the building history, the existing dendrochronological investigation was expanded.
1649/50 core building
First of all, an eaves-standing building was built along what is now Eibacher Hauptstrasse. It already had two full floors and was accessed on the ground floor by a central corridor perpendicular to the ridge direction. Presumably the original, probably single-flight staircase was also in this corridor. A change in the ceiling joist south of the corridor suggests a fireplace. On the south side of the attic, the stitching beams of a former hip roof were exposed. In the west are the mortises of the rafters on three distorting beams. The sandstone facade on the core building probably dates from the time it was built.
1876/77 extension
The floor plan was changed significantly, not least due to the changed access. The currently existing staircase was probably built in 1876 with the extension on the upper floor. The enclosing walls of the extension were made of sandstone like the existing building, in the northwest corner there was a brick fireplace. In the attic you can also see the ceiling beams of the extension ending under the brick wall in the south. The original roof structure, presumably a gable roof that merged into the main roof structure, is no longer recognizable. On the ground floor of the extension, a stable use with flat arched barrel ceilings (on iron girders) is indicated for the northern area. This area was divided into three parts by modern partition walls and was finally used for a laundry room, cold room and sanitary rooms.
1890/92 follow-up building
With the building application from 1890/92, the previous L-shaped building was closed to form a rectangle. The existing masonry was raised on the long sides with reddish sandstones, with a knee with a stone eaves profile, or newly built in the south-west. The gables were rebuilt. A new mansard / saddle roof was built over the entire construction area. During this measure, the windows on the entire building were also renewed and the appearance of the north facade (Fritz-Weidner-Straße) was fundamentally changed with these architectural structuring elements.
Eight drill cores (No. 12 to 19) were dendrochronologically evaluated. One spruce and seven pines could be identified. Five pines from two construction phases (1649/50 and 1890/91/92) could be clearly dated. Two pines (nos. 16 and 17) from a construction phase in between could be averaged but not clearly dated. Sample no. 5 from this construction phase dates from 1876/77 and there is nothing to prevent the two pines from being able to date close to this. Sample no. 5 could be dated individually by Hans Tisje and the University of Bamberg with the winter forest edge 1876/77. The "Dendrodatum 1616" published several times on the Internet could not be confirmed and appears as a result of a publication of a "possible dating" of sample no. 4 by Hans Tisje on July 12, 1997, which shortly afterwards on July 17, 1997 as a date "Winter 1649/50" was corrected by Tisje.
