The house was called "Haus zur Scheuren" (ad horreum) in the shrine books until 1257 and thus had the original name of the knight Werner von der Schuren, for whose social advancement the progenitor Gottschalk had set the course. Werner and Blithildis bequeathed the house to their son Johannes Overstolz in 1255 (* 1195, after † 1255).
