Tax collectors office, Timber-framed heritage building in Templin, Brandenburg, Germany

The Akzisehaus is a timber-framed house built in 1768 at Obere Mühlenstraße 11, on the south side of the street in the southeast of Templin's old town. It was erected together with the New Gate of the town fortifications, and a gate arch once spanned the road in front of it until it was demolished after 1960.

The Akzisehaus was built in 1768 together with the Neues Tor, the New Gate of Templin's town fortifications. At this house the town levied the Akzise, a tax on foodstuffs brought into the town, and a dam toll on travellers passing through. A gate arch spanned the street in front of it until it was demolished after 1960.

The name Akzisehaus refers to the excise (Akzise), the tax on food brought into the town that was levied here; a dam toll was also collected from travellers passing through. The building was later used by the Templin tourist information office.

The Akzisehaus stands at Obere Mühlenstraße 11, on the south side of the street in the southeast of Templin's old town. The gate arch that once spanned the road was demolished after 1960, so the building is now reached directly from the street. It later housed the Templin tourist information office.

The building now houses the town tourism office, merging its original administrative purpose with service to visitors. This dual role makes it a place where history and present-day life intersect in a working building.
