About Zum Barbarossa

On the side of the building, you’ll find a mosaic with the words “Zum Barbarossa”, featuring a fruit tree and two clovers like the ones found on classic playing cards. The word “Zum” points to the small door next to the mosaic. Those who discover this discreet entrance step into a room that remains completely hidden from the street.
