Historical Memorials in Weimar 10 Pfennig Value: Goethe House The baroque town house on Frauenplan was built in 1709 on behalf of Georg Caspar Helmershausen. The broad middle section of the house is flanked to the right and left by a wing extension with gate entrances, which lean back by a few degrees. The well-proportioned building dominates the small triangular square decorated with a fountain known as the Wife Plan throughout the world.
