1. Gaupp‘sche Apotheke / Gaupp‘s Pharmacy Marker
nach 1634, Erdgeschoss um 1530/1540
Ein Paradebeispiel für die Stadthäuser wohlhabender Bürger: Seit 1689 beherbergt das Fachwerkhaus eine Apotheke. Nach dem Stadtbrand wurde das Anwesen auf den spätmittelalterlichen Grundmauern neu errichtet. Ein spätgotisches Fenstergewände ist noch sichtbar. Um 1790 wurde die Gaupp'sche Apotheke umgebaut und erweitert.

Erected by Stadt Schorndorf.

A prime example of the town houses of wealthy citizens: initially used as the official residence of the sub-bailiff, the stately half-timbered house has housed a pharmacy since 1689. After the town fire, the property was rebuilt in 1663 (inscription) on the foundations from around 1520-30. A late Gothic window frame is still visible.
