Description

The Almshouse is a historic building constructed with rubble masonry and red sandstone gravel mortar. The main floor and roof are currently missing. The ground storey walls feature loopholes, although there are no other defensive details present. On the north side, there is a large arched entrance doorway on the east end, and a large lateral fireplace is located on the west end of the north side. The door and window heads of the first-floor hall are of late Gothic style. The east window includes window seats, which are not typical for late Gothic architecture, but indicate the building's domestic purpose.
