The house at Hauptstrasse No. 59, together with No. 61, stands at a slight angle to the street behind the protruding No. 57. The longitudinal building was built in 1631, the year can be found on the cellar window. The open basement exit in front of the house leads to a vaulted basement.
On the ground floor, during renovation work, a pointed arched door to the neighboring house made of sandstone was found. It is probably a spolie, i.e. reuse. A tiled stove with the year 1846 has been preserved from the old furnishings on the upper floor. On the upper floor, the storey height is very high, so that a small hall is presumed here. However, the history of the interesting house has not yet been explored.
