Rossi-Haus

The Rossi-Haus is an early 18th-century residential building in Rastatt with distinct baroque features. Its facade displays symmetrically arranged windows and a structured composition that defines the street appearance.

Built around 1700 under architect Domenico Egidio Rossi, this structure helped establish Rastatt as a residence city. It represents one of the early investments in the city's urban development during that formative period.

The building carries its architect's name and reflects the baroque residential style that shaped the city during that era. Today visitors can observe the balanced proportions and formal room arrangements that defined living spaces for the wealthy.

The building was comprehensively renovated and now functions as a community center open to the public. Visitors should check standard opening hours beforehand and confirm which areas are accessible to guests.

The building housed the district archive from 1987, preserving documents that recorded the region's development across centuries. This role made it an important repository for local historical records.
