    The toll hall is 84 meters long, 20 meters wide and 29 meters high. A five-storey gable roof with two six-storey roof bays was placed on a three-storey sandstone building. The basement is a three-nave vaulted hall supported by 26 columns.

    The east side is decorated with a network of keel arches in the gable and a pointed arch portal with the city's coat of arms (Adam Kraft, 1502). The elaborately designed gable facade shows an imaginatively varied brick pilaster strip structure. The rows of bricks are interwoven by pointed arches to form a fish-bubble-like pattern.

    Built around 1500 by Hans Behaim, the toll hall initially served as a granary to supply the residents of Nuremberg. A second function was added 70 years later: the municipal customs office moved in. From now on, goods from all over the world were checked and weighed here.
