Parkán No. 118
Description of the Building:
One-storey building with a six-axis facade from 1874, and a roof
covered with tiles.
Architectural and Historical Development:
The house was build in Renaissance style before 1580. The present
appearance of the building is a result of a reconstruction from
1874, when only a few walls were left from the old building
including part of the town walls by the river.
History of the House
Residents:
The first known owner of the house was Ondřej Popelle in 1580, who
was replaced by Tomáš Höriczer. From 1596 a miller, Mertl
Paumstark, resided there, and after him Hans Bernhart, who was
replaced in 1634 by Jakob Gesell. From 1660 - 1694 the house
belonged to a hewer, Ondřej Mayer. At the end of the 17th and
beginning of the 18th century the house was occupied by chimney
sweeps. The first one was Bartoloměj Signorell or Erdklein, and
from 1708 until 1719, Antonín Ruspendor. In 1731 a croupper, Matyáš
Böhm, became the owner of the house. He was replaced by a miller,
Bartoloměj Lang. His family resided in the house until 1768. In the
last quarter of the 18th century, the house belonged to Novák
family. After 1812 the owner of the house changed quite often, and
except for names we don\'t have any further information.
Present Use:
The building is not used at present.
