Gotyckie domy z przeł. XIII i XIV w. gruntownie przebudowano u schyłku XVI w. Całość spłonęła w 1791 r. Podczas odbudowy zespołowi nadano obecny kształt. Nad barokowym portalem płaskorzeźba „Wniebowzięcie NMP".

The Gothic buildings were built at the turn of the 14^th century and completely altered at the end of the 16^th century. The whole building complex burned down in 1791. During the reconstruction it acquired its present form. Above the Baroque portal there is a bas-relief called "The Assumption".
