    The main thing is that he can no longer enjoy the buildings 😊

    View of the former residence of the so-called protégé bishop Tebartz van Elst, with which building he got into the headlines. From the outside quite unspectacular. You can also visit them or use them for meetings. Please inform in advance about the opening hours! Only open for visitors at certain times.

    The "Alte Vikarie" built in 1515 is a historic half-timbered house with the high quarry stone base and the half-timbered structure on the two upper floors, the bay window, which extends to the gable top in the middle of the facade, and the octagonal stair tower on the side.
    The "Alte Vikarie" has been owned by the Diocese of Limburg since 1903, which used it as a residential and office building.
    The diocese has since moved away from the original name of the entire property. Instead, the building ensemble to which the "Alte Vikarie" belongs is now called "Bischofshaus".
