    Built in 1542 in the style of the "Görlitz Renaissance" and others with plasters instead of profiled window frames. The ground floor was built at the end of the 19th century in the neo-renaissance style. From 1690 to 1714 the house was the seat of the chief miner Hans Carl von Carlowitz, co-founder of the forestry apprenticeship to secure the need for wood for mining and smelting.

      During the Advent season, the Christmas market in Freiberg is a popular destination in the Erzgebirge. On the upper market place at the foot of the town hall tower you can enjoy the Christmas magic.

        The Obermarkt is a historic square in the city of Freiberg in Saxony. Today it measures 110 meters by 72 meters and lies at an altitude of around 402 m above sea level. NN. The Freiberg upper town with the Petrikirche and the upper market was laid out in the second half of the 80s of the 12th century according to plan and according to a rectangular scheme. Already at this point in time, or only a few years later, and thus not after the city fire of 1484, as previously assumed, the first construction was also carried out on the west side of the Obermarkt towards the Petrikirche. The Obermarkt in Freiberg was never renamed for almost 800 years in the course of history and therefore still bears his "birth name". The historic square has been kept closed.
