Major Buildings in the German Democratic Republic 3rd Edition The Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications of the German Democratic Republic publishes six multicolored special postage stamps depicting significant buildings in the German Democratic Republic. 40 Pfennig value: House "Zum Stockfisch" in Erfurt The house "Zum Stockfisch" in Erfurt testifies with other magnificent town houses of the city not only of the wealth and power of the Erfurt patrician, but also of a high degree of craftsmanship of the building craftsmen The building was designed by Georg Ziegler in 1607. Its façade can serve as an example of late Renaissance art in this room, and at first glance the massive square floor (rustica) dominates the building The two portals are designed very differently according to their use as entrance and gate, but visually treated equally.A richly decorated bay window, which leads through the two upper floors, stands in clear contrast to the simple window design.
