The marketplace has emerged in its present form after the great fire of 1707th
The town hall (picture) was built in 1708 at its present location and rebuilt after its destruction in 1945 in modified form. Today it is the seat of city government. In 1987 the basement Weibertreu-museum of the city was established.
The building opposite, also built after 1707 have not been destroyed in 1945. Between Market Square and the Church of Duke Christopher is in the 16th Century, this "little castle". Here lived in the 17th Century, the grand treasurer, and later the building was the seat of the Bailiwick vineyard. After the great fire of 1707 poorly rebuilt, is the "Little Palace" since the end of the last century as a dean's office.
The buildings west have survived the destruction of the city from 1707 to 1945 intact. The "Mesnereibehausung", the highest building of the church steps, was the oldest school in the city. There was up to the mid-19th Century, "Teutsche school" (elementary school) located in the mainly taught in German and bourgeois values were followed. In all likelihood reach the beginnings of the Weinberger school Latin back into the Middle Ages. 1540, the middle paragraph of the church built a second school season for the Latin School. In addition to this building are on the left and right of the old rectory, the former Holy Cross Pfründhaus.
