Hier stand bis 1977 der wegen seines dreizackigen Giebels und seiner Imposanz so genannte Königsbau. Er beheimatete von 1863 bis 1899 die Eierteigwarenfabrik von Johann Jakob Schüle. Der gebäudeprägende Dachstuhl fiel am 31. Januar 1950 weitestgehend einem Großbrand zum Opfer. Bis zum Abbruch des Gesamtgebäudes wurde der Dachstuhl zu einem einzigen, entsprechend höheren Giebel umgestaltet. 1977/1978 wurde der Königsbau schließlich abgerissen und durch das heutigen Gebäude ersetzt.

(English translation:)

Until 1977 here stood, because of its three-pronged gable and its imposing appearance, the so-called "Königsbau" (literally, "royal building"). From 1863 to 1899 it housed the egg pasta factory of Johann Jakob Schüle. On January 31, 1950, the building fell victim to a major fire, with its building-defining attic collapsing. Until the demolition of the entire building, the attic was transformed into a single, correspondingly higher floor. In 1977-78, the Königsbau was finally demolished and replaced by the present building. (Marker Number 5.)
