Entrepôt servant au produit de la dîme. Produits de la terre et de l’élevage versé à l’Eglise. Datant de<br />

Ehemaliges fürstbischöfliches Zehnthaus. Lagerhaus, wo die der Kirche geschuldeten Waren (im<br />

Prinzip ein Zehntel aller Produkte aus Landwirtschaft und Viehzucht) gelagert wurden. Kern 1536,<br />

Restauration 1639 und 1911.<br />

The structure was originally the prince-bishop’s tithe house. It served as the storage place for everything<br />

owed the church at the time of tithes. The tithe represented literally one-tenth of all crops and<br />

livestock. The main building dates back to 1536. It was then restored in 1639 and 1911.
