Bummerlhaus

The Bummerlhaus on Steyr's Stadtplatz is consistently cited as the finest surviving secular Gothic building in Austria, its stone facade intricately carved, its corner bay window projecting over the square in the Gothic merchant style. The name comes from a small carved animal figure on the corner.
