Wilhelm Hauff Geburtshaus Gedenktafel

A bronze memorial plaque marks the Eberhardstraße thirty-three address, displaying the young portrait of the poet Wilhelm Hauff. While this modern building stands in a busy city block today, it occupies the site where Hauff was born in eighteen hundred and two. The text on the plaque identifies the location of his birth house, noting that the original structure was destroyed in nineteen forty-four.
