House Hermes

Hellenstraße 26

59955 Winterberg

This house, renovated in 1988 and 1990, bears the newer inscription in the gable triangle:

ACQUIRED AND RENOVATED ANNO 1988 BY THE MARRIED COUPLE BIRGIT AND BERNI LEBER.


Another less conspicuously placed Latin inscription on the gable threshold reads:


LESV QVA VASTIS SVRGVNT ERECTA RVINIS TECTA TVA DIVA QV ASO


TVER E MANV SOLI DEO GLORIA


From desolate ruins this building has been erected, Lord I beseech thee, protect it with thy hand, to God alone be the glory.


The house, now protected with slate, is one of the oldest built in Winterberg after the fire of 1791.
