The building has been constructed after the great fire of 1327, where a third of the city has been destroyed, due to Emperor Luis' of Bavaria order of city expansion. The still intact Isartor can be traced back to the same time. The house in Sternecker Street 2 has been restored in the old form. The partly intact facade paintings with square patterns has been uncovered and replenished. Furthermore the "Heaven's Stairs", which are typical for Munich, are intact. It visibly reaches the roof from the ground floor.

The Roman stonewall, with changing layers of brick and gravel, is also very significant. The gravel could be obtained cheap from the nearby Isar river. This construction is proof that the Roman wall techniques have survived the population migration south of the Danube, and it seems it was very common during the middle Ages in southern Bavaria. The layered wall also contains gothical niches, which were important for the erection of open lights, but which also marked the property borders. The back part of the niches was the border wall to the neighboring building at the same time. We also want to point out the still intact open fire places of the building. The living quarters on the second floor are of great significance, they have ceiling paintings dating back to the time around 1340, which have been discovered during restoration.
