Ledenhof, Medieval stone building in Osnabrück, Germany

Ledenhof is a seven-story stone building in Osnabrück with thick walls and a prominent stair tower. The facade displays Renaissance ornaments, and the structure contains a large hall with a roof framed in quarry stone masonry.

The building was first documented in 1499 as a residence for the noble von Leden family. Over time it served multiple purposes including functioning as a mint before sustaining damage during the 20th century.

The name Ledenhof refers to the von Leden family who made this their home. Today visitors can see the Renaissance decorations on the facade that reflect the family's wealth and standing.

The building underwent comprehensive renovation to preserve its structure and repair damage. Visitors should know the interior primarily functions as a research facility.

The house expanded during the 15th century from its original three stories to the current seven-story structure through successive enlargements. These additions blend different architectural periods into a unified whole.
