Haus Voss - Johanniskirchhof

The stately house was built in 1561 as the curia building of St John's Abbey.



During renovation work in 1989/1990, the surrounding walls of the building with a quarrystone plinth and timber-framed upper floor were preserved.

A verse by the Greek poet Hesiod is carved into the sill beam in Latin on the shop front facing the churchyard (Above all, seek to gain a house, a mate and a draught animal. Everything the Lord gives, therefore he has no less).

In 1893, the locksmith Julius Voss took over the house and converted it into a business. The front door with rich wrought ironwork in Renaissance style dates from this time.
