    The Eickesche Haus in Einbeck's pedestrian zone is a late Renaissance half-timbered house richly decorated with figurative carvings. Today it houses the city tourist information and the cultural ring. (...) The facades of the Eickesches Haus are decorated with rich carvings, which make up the cultural significance of the building. The motifs come from the educational world of humanism, the Reformation and the Renaissance and antiquity. The thresholds of the protruding upper floors, the 51 consoles and the filler wood are decorated with ornamental carvings. The numerous figurative representations on the 42 existing parapet panels show Christ, the four evangelists, the five senses, the planetary deities, the seven liberal arts as well as the virtues (e.g. faith, love, patience or prudence) and the muses (such as Erato, Euterpe, Calliope or Polyhymnia). The eleven apostles, seven warriors and 25 hermen pilasters are depicted in the posts of the window areas above the parapets. There are also 110 carved heads and masks. On the front corner beam, three warrior figures stand on top of each other as atlases, each apparently supporting the floors above them. The Middle Low German inscriptions in the corner area between the cleats on the first floor come from the Proverbs of Solomon and from the 37th Psalm.

        The Eickesche house (1612-1614) documents the highest artistic quality of wooden building sculpture. The tourist information is located there.
