Junkernschänke, Medieval timber-framed house in Göttingen, Germany.
The Junkernschänke features detailed wooden carvings on its facade, including zodiac signs and biblical scenes depicted through intricate wood engravings.
Built between 1446 and 1452, the building belonged to woodcarver Bartold Kastrop from 1499 to 1531 before being sold to Göttingen mayor Gyseler Swanenflogel.
The facade displays wooden medallions with portraits identified by experts as evangelists Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Peter, and Paul.
The building underwent complete renovation from 2003 to 2008, restoring the carved details to their original colored appearance.
Since 2023, the historic structure houses Sherpa's restaurant, which serves Nepalese dishes including meat, fish, and vegetarian options.
