German:
Das Haus Goethestraße 31 wurde 1717 erbaut. Das Zunftzeichen aus Sandstein zeigt, dass sich hier einst eine Bäckerei befand. Auch heute noch ist im Grundbuch -reale Bäckerei- und Branntweinbrennereigerechtsame eingetragen. Das älteste Bild zeigt das Haus im Jahre 1966. 1984 wurde das denkmalgeschützte Haus vor dem Verfall gerettet und komplett modernisiert. Es ist heute in 2 Läden und 8 Wohnungen aufgeteilt. Die alten Sandsteine des Brunnens sind heute mit in die Bepflanzung des Hofes integriert.

English Translation:
The house at Goethestraße 31 was built in 1717. The sandstone guild sign shows that a bakery once operated here. Even today the land register still records the rights of a “real bakery and brandy distillery privilege.” The oldest picture shows the house in 1966. In 1984, the listed historic building was saved from decay and completely modernized. Today it is divided into two shops and eight apartments. The old sandstone blocks of the well are now incorporated into the planting in the courtyard.
