Weinstraße 29, Hotel in a Baroque courtyard complex in Deidesheim, Germany
The Deidesheimer Hof at Weinstraße 29 is a Baroque courtyard complex whose core dates to 1703, as inscribed on the west gable and cellar entrance. After a fire in 1904, Munich architect Gabriel von Seidl restored it, adding the stepped gables and oriel in Neo-Renaissance style. The white stucco facade has terracotta trim, green shutters, and a corner niche with a Marian figure from around 1710.
The core of the Deidesheimer Hof is a Baroque courtyard complex built at the start of the 18th century; the year 1703 appears on the west gable front and by the cellar entrance. Damaged by a fire in 1904, it was restored under Munich architect Gabriel von Seidl, who added the stepped gables and oriels in the Neo-Renaissance style. The wine firm Eckel, founded in 1867 by Fritz and Henry Eckel, had its headquarters here before moving to the Villa Buhl in 1901.
The building is the Deidesheimer Hof, whose name refers to the town of Deidesheim; it stands at Weinstraße 29, on the market square, facing the group formed by the town hall and St. Ulrich's Church. Its restaurants are named St. Urban and Schwarzer Hahn, and the Schwarzer Hahn has held a Michelin star since 2022 under Stefan Neugebauer and Felix Jarzina.
The building stands at Weinstraße 29 on the Marktplatz, with the Deutsche Weinstraße running just past its west side. The outdoor stair to the square dates from the 1970s; before that a two-armed open staircase stood here. The facade, including the Marian niche at the southwest corner, is seen from the cobblestone street.
The building's Wappenzimmer, added in 1952 on the site of a former courtyard passage, extends into the neighbouring Dienheimer Hof, so the two houses interlock. Below both run barrel-vaulted cellars once joined as a single ring cellar from Schloßstraße to Weinstraße, later divided by a wall when the property was split.
