Guided Story
Have you noticed the intricate decorations on the facade yet? These delicate details speak of craftsmanship from centuries past. Look up at the windows with their ornate cornices. Imagine Mayor Georg Heinrich Sonntag gazing out when this house was not just his home but also Remscheid's town hall. Just behind you, a few steps away, is the quaint district of Hasten. A stroll there feels like a little journey back in time. And if you pause for a moment, you might almost hear the bustling conversations of merchants discussing their trades. It's as if the walls themselves are whispering stories.
