History

The house was built in 1860 as a hotel by the master tailor Andreas Drotleff, but after its completion he only set up an inn on the ground floor. Its first floor was rented by the district court from 1872, and then bought by the army for a hussar barracks, together with its park. After the hussars were transferred to Szászsebes in 1902, the building was extensively remodelled by its new owner, the Lutheran presbytery, who built apartments on the ground floor. Its first floor was again rented by the court between 1911 and 1933.
