Pellerhaus

4 BradJill - 2 years ago

Pellerhaus is a historic residential property built for Martin Peller (1602-1605) at Egidienplatz in the city centre of Nuremburg. The property was considered an architectural masterpiece offering an impressive exterior facade, inner courtyard with numerous decorative rooms. Sadly the property was destroyed during WWII bombings.

As part of reconstruction efforts, the property was converted into a public library. The historic facade of the building was replaced with contemporary architectural form of the 1950s. Today, the property also serves as a German Games Archive and museum.

During our visit, we learned that there is an initiative to reconstruct the interior of Pellerhaus to its original form. A kind lady gave us information in English and explained the efforts taking place. We were then able to tour the inside, seeing some of the restoration works. It gives hope that at least the courtyard of Pellerhaus will offer an impressive sightseeing experience in years to come.

(Translated by Google) We happened to pass the Pellerhaus and decided to visit it. It was worth it. A beautiful old building from the 17th century. Unfortunately, part of it is a construction site. The arcades, the vaulted cellar and the stairwell could be visited. Questions about the building were readily answered by the staff. Entry was not required

Wir sind zufällig am Pellerhaus vorbeigekommen und uns zur Besichtigung entschlossen. Es hat sich gelohnt. Ein schönes altes Gebäude aus dem 17. Jahrhundert. Leider zum Teil er eine Baustelle. Die Arkaden, das Kellergewölbe und auch das Treppenhaus konnten besichtigt werden. Fragen zum Gebäude wurden bereitwillig vom Personal beantwortet. Eintritt wurde nicht verlangt
