The long building (Langhaus) charac­teristic of the narrow yards is of brick and stone with a roof cov­ered with terracotta tiles. It con­sists of three separate kitchen­room dwelling units. The yard was shared by three families of «Slip. «tu }í -H equal status who farmed inde­pendently. As a means of fire­protection the loft was also divid­ed, with separate access. The furnishings of the first unit reflect the 1900s. In the little vaulted kitchen copper dishes abound, characteristic of German households. The textile, protect­ing the side wall has a Gothic inscription. Light was provided by two metal disc-shaped contain­ers where slivers were burnt.

The two four-poster beds stand parallel with the wall, on top of them the Bible, the psalm­book and the calendar are placed besides the devotional pictures and mugs brought back from a pilgrimage.
