It is a typical burgher's residence, the home of a city farmer or "burgher," who lived within the city walls and cultivated his fields in the surrounding area. Features often include large gates for farm wagons, indoor storage of produce, equipment, and livestock, and a combination of living and working quarters, often with half-timbering and pitched roofs.

This half-timbered house was built in 1688, renovated in 2013, and rightly received the Bavarian Monument Prize in 2015. A truly stunning building with stunning color scheme.
