Excerpt (in translation): A gem, built in 1685, with a pointed gable towering high. It is a farmer's house that is characteristic of Schorndorf, i.e. a building that combined living and agricultural spaces under one roof. The cast-iron pump in front of it is the last of a total of nine urban pumping wells that were found in Schorndorf in the 19th century. The pump has a high exemplary value, since a well already existed at this location before the 19th century.
