Alter Bau, Historical building in Geislingen an der Steige, Germany.
The eight-story timber-framed Alter Bau stands in the historical center of Geislingen an der Steige, displaying traditional Alamannic construction methods.
The Imperial City of Ulm constructed this structure around 1445 as a granary after acquiring the area from the Counts of Helfenstein in 1395.
The municipal museum presents exhibits about local history, traditional bone turners' craftsmanship, and a collection of 250 preserved bird specimens.
Visitors can explore both permanent historical collections and rotating art exhibitions in the gallery space, which organizes special displays during Christmas.
The building contains the Southwest German Treasure Chest Museum, featuring a collection of iron chests that document the evolution of chest manufacturing.
