Pfeilerhaus, Timber-framed house at Andreasplatz, Hildesheim, Germany.

The Pfeilerhaus features a ground-level passageway created by supporting pillars and displays decorative elements on its exterior facade.

Built in 1623, the original structure was destroyed during a bombing in 1945 and reconstructed between 1953 and 1954 with modern architectural elements.

The building represents the evolution of German architectural styles, combining traditional timber framing with post-war reconstruction approaches of the 1950s.

Located at Andreasplatz 20, the structure includes a pavilion that houses a café connected to the neighboring Umgestülpter Zuckerhut.

The reconstruction maintained the essential form of the original building while incorporating contemporary design elements under architect August Albert Steinborn's direction.
