[27] Corner Nikolausbrücke/Bischofstraße/Bahnhofstraße

Description

The eastern entrance to the Nikolausbrücke bridge is flanked by two large buildings designed by the ducal court architect R.F.H. Fischer. The building on the left as seen from the bridge (Bischofstr. 1) was the municipal hospital until 1692, then a patrician house built by Mayor Hasenmayer in 1791, and later the Reichert commercial building. The other building, at Bahnhofstraße 2, which is almost identical in construction, housed a well-appointed inn (Waldhorn) as early as 1723, where Ludwig Uhland stayed in 1812 and Hermann Hesse in 1931.
