description
The Wettbergsche Adelshof is a large rectangular building on a stone basement and a half-timbered upper floor. The street is an ornate Renaissance - Erker . A square stair tower is integrated into the building . The basement of the building has a barrel vault . The 1.30 meter thick partition walls in the basement are stronger than the outer walls and probably originate from a previous building. The city wall , which was demolished in this area in 1962 , used to run a few meters from the rear wall of the building . In front of the building is a nine-meter-deep well, which the local fire brigade investigated in 2017 without any results.
