    The most famous half-timbered house in Celle!

    The Hoppener Haus, built in 1532, is located in Poststraße / Rundestraße.

    Of all the half-timbered houses in the Old Town it is undoubtedly the most magnificent.
    Six stories collar in the gable over each other.
    Setting thresholds, stands and Fußwinkelhölzer over the two lower floors show rich figurative ornamentation, in addition to persons of rank planetary gods, diabolical and foolish figures, mythical creatures, grimaces and reptiles, in between breastplates, which are probably to characterize the different estates.
    In the gable, on the other hand, only the sleepers are provided with powerful carvings.
    The thresholds on the eaves of the house show the tendril bar.
    The image Ernst of the Confessor was added after 1901.


    Just in front of it is a Pipenposten (with the coat of arms lion), one of three service water wells of the fiscal water pipe from the 16th century.

      The house, built in 1532 by order of Duke Ernst the Confessor for rent master Simon Hoppener, is one of the most magnificent half-timbered houses in the city. Immediately in front of it is a pipeline post, one of three domestic water wells with the lion's coat of arms.

        The oldest standing half-timbered house in Celle's old town, built in 1526, is located at Heiligen Kreuz 26. It was built as a gable-roof half-timbered building.
