In the middle of Ulmer's old town, in the fishermen's quarter, lies the Kässbohrer Haus, also called the "House for the grapevine". It was built around the year 1480 as a residential building - in other words before the completion of the Ulm Minster. It is the headquarters of Karl Kässbohrer, the founder of the later Kässbohrer Fahrzeugwerke. Since the 1990s, the Setra Museum has been housed here, which tells the story of the Kässbohrer family and the omnibus production in Ulm since the 19th century.
