Hochzeitshaus, Renaissance building in Hamelin, Germany
The Hochzeitshaus stands as a multi-story Renaissance structure made of Süntel sandstone, featuring decorative stone bands and ornate architectural details.
Constructed between 1610 and 1617, the Hochzeitshaus contained a festival hall, city scales, courthouse, wine tavern, armory, and an apothecary shop.
The building's name derives from 'hohe Zeit', meaning high time, referring to periods throughout the year when festivals were celebrated in the community.
Visitors can observe the mechanical performance of the Pied Piper story three times daily at 1:05 PM, 3:35 PM, and 5:35 PM at the building's facade.
The bell carillon at Hochzeitshaus, installed in 1964, contains 37 bells and replaced the original clock destroyed during World War II in 1945.
