Köpfhaus, Architectural heritage building at Fuggerplatz 9, Augsburg, Germany

The three-story corner building features a saddle roof, volute gable, and curved dwarf house with decorated facades on north and west sides.

Master builder Johannes Holl merged multiple structures into one building in 1578, creating a unified northern facade for wealthy residents of Augsburg.

The ground floor contains ceiling frescoes dating from 1738 renovations commissioned by the Köpf family and executed by Johann Andreas Schneidmann.

The building stands near the Fuggerdenkmal memorial and currently houses a coffee establishment on its ground floor since 2009.

The structure survived World War II aerial bombardments with minimal damage and later served as part of the Karstadt department store complex.

Location: Augsburg

Architects: Hans Holl, Johann Andreas Schneidmann
