Schürstabhaus

The Schürstabhaus is a notable patrician house in Nuremberg's Sebald old town and a stop on the Historic Mile. Originally formed from two 12th-century houses, it was combined into a single building in the 15th century and remodeled several times. Its architecture stands out for a pointed-arch portal, a carved roof dormer, and a vaulted house chapel on the ground floor. You can also admire a historic staircase, a sundial, and a Gothic figure of the Virgin Mary on the corner of the building. After being damaged in World War II, the house was fully restored in the 1990s and today helps define the look of the old town.
