Description

Located next to the small river Auma, the steep slope along the river was used for the building. A total of four floors are visible from the street side. Toward the river, another floor further down can be used. The building is symmetrical and is particularly emphasized at the entrance by the tower-like central building. The hall lies behind it and, in contrast to the flat-roofed parts of the building on the street, it has a slightly rising gable roof. The balconies and terraces are on the river side and offer a fantastic location for gastronomy.
