Maison Goethe, Timber-framed house in Grande Île, Strasbourg, France.

Maison Goethe is a three-storey Alsatian timber-framed townhouse at 36, rue du Vieux-Marché-aux-Poissons, on the Grande Île. Built in the 1590s, it has an arcaded ground floor, cross-mullioned windows on the first floor and carved bas-relief symbols, under a roof with dormers in Alsatian tiles. It is joined to No. 34 to form a single building and has been renovated several times.

The house became known in 1770 when Johann Wolfgang von Goethe lived there during his studies at the University of Strasbourg. His stay gave the building literary significance in the city.

The house is known by Goethe's name, though he lodged on the second floor only in 1770 and 1771; he took his meals at the pension Lauth at 22, rue de l'Ail, a gathering place for philosophy students. The visit to the nearby cathedral inspired his 1773 essay "Von deutscher Baukunst".

The house stands at 36 rue du Vieux-Marché-aux-Poissons, on the Grande Île, a few steps from the cathedral and place Gutenberg. The facade is viewed from the public street; the ground floor is occupied by a shop, so access is limited to the exterior. Goethe took his meals at 22 rue de l'Ail nearby.

The house was not always as famous as it is today - it took Goethe's stay to bring it into focus. Few visitors remember that the poet studied in this modest building.
