Architectural Office in a Renovated Biedermeier House
The house at Schlossberg 1, located in the old Linz district of Ebelsberg at a bridgehead of the Traun River, was first documented in 1526. Its elongated structure, running parallel to the river, is partially embedded in the Schlossberg hill. Burned down to its foundations (a blend of Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque elements) in 1809, it was subsequently rebuilt as a Biedermeier-style building with a classically influenced base featuring shingled plasterwork and two upper stories separated by a continuous cornice. Pilasters, which divide the two rows of windows, rise from this cornice. The windows are framed by slightly banded stucco cornices and pediments.
