The family mansion was built between 1533 and 1544 during the construction boom in this elite part of the city. The estate was planned in the style of the French Renaissance. The building was severely damaged by the bombing in 1945 and was restored only in the late sixties of the last century. It houses a museum of old patrician clans of Nuremberg.
