This patrician house, built in the 15th century, was the inn "A la Couronne" (Inn Krone) until 1603. It was transformed in the 16th and 17th centuries. At the end of the 18th century it belonged to the family of the Colmarian sculptor Auguste Bartholdi. In the twentieth year the scholar Auguste Schaaf was the owner.

This very old patrician house (1491) served as an inn until 1603 and passed into the possession of the Bartholdi family at the end of the 18th century. In the 20th century, Auguste Schaaf, a local history enthusiast, acquired the house.
