Architectural Description | Exterior

Ground Plan
It stands on a rectangular ground plan and includes wings facing the courtyard.

Storeys
The building was originally constructed with two storeys. It was later extended to three storeys.

Five Window Bays
The street-facing facade displays an irregular, five-bay arrangement.

Horizontal Articulation
The street-facing facade is horizontally articulated by a prominent moulded string course.

Plasterwork Quoining
Plasterwork quoins have been placed along both edges of the upper floors. 

Second Floor Window Openings
The window openings on the second floor have plain plaster surrounds and straight moulded pediments. Wrought-iron grilles protect the lower half of the windows.

First Floor Window Openings
Here again, the windows are framed by plain plaster surrounds with straight moulded window cornices above and simple sills fitted with wrought-iron flower boxes. Beneath the sills, recessed plasterwork panels were created around 1960.

Ground Floor
At ground-floor level, a round-arched portal with a pronounced impost band and emphasised keystone forms the main entrance.

Porch
A glass-and-steel construction dating from the 1970s projects forward to create a porch. To the right stands a shop unit that was added around 1910.

Wrought-Iron Trade Sign
A wrought-iron trade sign dating from around 1760, depicting the “White Wolf”, is fixed to the centre of the upper-storey facade.

Lettering on the Facade
The lettering “RESTAURANT PENSION Weisser Wolf” above the trade sign indicates the functions of the house as a restaurant and guesthouse.

Roof
The building is covered by a steep, red-tiled pitched roof. The roof ridge runs parallel to the street. The western edge of the roof terminates in a fire-wall gable.

Roofscape
Three adjoining buildings (Hauptplatz 7, 8 and 9) form a stepped roofline with different heights and pitches. The property junctions are marked by fire-wall gables.
