    History

    The wooden portal from 1534 features bas-relief carvings of figures, likely based on Dürer's model. They depict Adam and Eve surrounded by symbols such as the tree of life, apples, bells, lions, and a skull.
    The current half-timbered house replaces a previous structure that was demolished in 1840. The portal is a remnant of the earlier building.

    Wooden portal from 1534. Expression of bourgeois prosperity, remains of a richly carved half-timbered house, partly continuous from the threshold to the frame.
