In this ascending section the Geispelgasse consists mainly of small "Taunerhäuschen" (day laborer cottages), which did probably not emerge until the 19th century, but have a decisive influence on the appearance of this alley.
The two "Taunerhäuschen" No. 17 and No. 19 have two floors and are united under a single steep gabled roof. A narrow wooden construction with a pent roof is attached to the northern part. They thus correspond to the type of "Taunerhaus", which usually had only a few rooms. The two "Taunerhäuschen" have been extremely well restored by an architect from Muttenz and furnished for residential purposes.
