Architecture and history

The three-storey half - timbered house was probably built in the late Gothic period in the first half of the 16th century. It is registered as a residential building in the Quedlinburg monument register. The upper floor protrudes over the ground floor. Originally existing bows and beam heads were later sawn off. The ground floor was rebuilt around 1780 and a small shop, which was later dismantled, was added to the east of the front door. The windows were enlarged and decorative lining of the compartments was added. In addition, the building received an ornate door.

The side wing also dates from the time the house was built.
