Kramerzunft

Kramerzunft is a guild hall from the 16th century in the heart of Memmingen, remarkable for its detailed stonework and timber elements. The three-story building displays typical Bavarian features with carefully designed roof structure and solid stone facades.

The building was constructed in the 16th century as a meeting place for the Kramer merchants, an influential guild that shaped Memmingen's economic life. It survived wars and changes and remains a testament to the town's trading history.

The building was the meeting place for the Kramer guild, a group of merchants who sold textiles and other goods. Today you can still see in the rooms how these merchants worked together and conducted their trade.

Visiting is best done during daytime hours when the building is sometimes open for viewing. Check in advance about opening times, as the hall is not always open to the public.

The hall is known for its original wooden beam ceiling, which remains visible and impressively shows 16th century craftsmanship techniques. Such old construction methods are rarely preserved as well as they are here.
