Architectural value
Built at the end of the 18^th – beg, of the 19^th c.

The building in Tilzes Street is one of the oldest in that street. The one-storeyed brick house with a garret is symmetrical of a rectangular plan. It is a house of a Klaipeda middle class citizen. Originally it was a one-storeyd house. At the end of the 19^th c, with an acute shortage of flats in the city, the house was expanded and a garret was built. Under one part of the house a basement was built. The house has interesting wooden stairs inside. The house underwent several reconstructions and lost its original look. In 1855 a butcher Heinrich Schmitdt owned the house. In 1929 the house was reconstructed and used for renting.
