The Goldene Waage stands out with its ornate, timber-framed facade and the deep, protruding gables that overhang the narrow street. This house served as a merchant home and warehouse for Abraham von Hamel, a wealthy spice trader who built it in the early seventeenth century. His business thrived on the goods coming through Frankfurt's trade fairs. During the bombing raids of nineteen forty-four, the original structure burned to the ground, leaving only the stone cellar and a few charred salvaged wooden beams.
