    The Pegau town hall stood on this site until 1561. After the construction of a more impressive town hall at today's market square, the property passed into private ownership. The current building was constructed in 1744. Until 1945, its owners were merchants and physicians. As the town's most prestigious house, it served as overnight accommodation for Emperor Napoleon I after the Battle of Großgörschen (May 3, 1813) and for Tsar Alexander I of Russia before the Battle of Leipzig (October 15, 1813). The property was acquired by the town council in 2005. stadt-pegau.de/tax_kategorie/denkmaeler
