Hornstein-Haus
The doctor and scholar Dr Franz Anton Jäger was born in the Hornstein House (1771 - 1818). He was one of the greatest geniuses that Reutte produced. He studied philosophy, mathematics, physics, astronomy and medicine and spoke seven languages. The house came into the possession of the Hornstein family in 1891. In 1926, a fundamental embellishment of the house was completed. The pictures on the façade were created by the painter Martin Kees (1878-1959). They refer to the trades of master shoemaker Hans Hornstein and master painter Josef Hornstein, which were located in the house at the time.
