The listed building was erected after the fire of 1723. During preparations for the town's 1000th anniversary celebration in 1914, the timber framing was exposed. Like many other houses, it had been plastered over for fire and weather protection. For a time, the Fischbach family and their butcher shop were located in this building, hence the name "Haus Fischbach" (Fischbach House). In 1978, under the direction of Dr. h. c. Karl Löber, the Haiger Local History Museum was established here. Many exhibits illustrate the history of Haiger and its districts from Celtic times to the 20th century.
