Köritzhof, Timber-framed house in Buchholz-Kleefeld, Germany.

The Köritzhof features exposed timber framing, steep gabled roofs, and Gothic pointed arches formed by closely spaced wall posts at both gable ends.

Built in 1619 before the Thirty Years' War, this farmhouse stands as the oldest dated agricultural structure in Hannover, constructed by a settler from Brandenburg.

The entrance beam displays a traditional German inscription from 1619 requesting divine protection and blessings for all who enter and exit the house.

The main building combines living quarters with farming facilities under one large hipped roof, while a separate smaller residence for elderly family members dates from the 19th century.

The internal structure maintains its original floor plan from 1619, with special side extensions called Kübbungen that served as cattle housing areas.
