The private house in Heuberg at 5 Frieden Street, with its beautiful mansards and French balconies, was one of the most beautiful houses in Germany at that time. As well as its beauty, this house was famous for many more stories, which told that ghosts and ghosts lived in the house.
In 1546, Hans Boquetescher sold his then haunted house to Johann von Bruges, who was expelled from his hometown because of his faith. During Johan's ownership of the house, he was noticeably transformed. The right wing was completed, with the construction of which the completion of the third floor began.
