Description
Square-gabled house dated 1849. It has the rectangular plan, two rooms deep, that was customary at that date. The house now has a half-hipped slate roof (Fransen, 2004: 213). The underground Hartenberg Cellar was commissioned in the late 1980s, and is decorated with twelve stained-glass artworks by German coppersmith, Karl Heinz Wilhelm. They took two years to complete, and describe each of the twelve phases of cultivating and producing wine.
