The building was built in 1552 in the Renaissance style. It became famous on November 7, 1632, when the corpse of the Swedish king Gustav II Adolf, who had been killed at Lützen, was dissected and embalmed here by the local pharmacist, so that he could be transferred to Sweden and buried there. Since 1725 the courthouse, there is now a museum with a diorama depicting the Battle of Lützen with 10,000 tin figures.

Only the king's heart was taken to Sweden; his body was buried in Lützen.

The impressive tomb can be visited there.
