Schmales Haus is a historic hotel in Ulm’s historic Fischerviertel. Its timber frame dates to the seventeenth century. The building measures only 4.63 metres across, making its narrow structure the defining feature of this architectural spot. A careful restoration preserves the building’s historical character. The interior combines a restored stucco ceiling from around 1600 with custom walnut furniture and an Italian lighting concept. Modern comforts accompany these older architectural elements inside. Rooms offer views across the Blau, a Danube tributary, and towards the Ulm Minster landmark. The Blau river and cathedral frame the setting. Schmales Haus also shows how a seventeenth-century timber-framed building supports modern hotel use. The building’s narrow 4.63-metre width defines its appearance. Walnut furniture and Italian lighting place contemporary design beside the stucco ceiling and timber structure. Ulm Minster appears among the recorded views from rooms. The restored structure connects a narrow seventeenth-century form with the Blau and Ulm Minster. Its timber-framed identity remains clear throughout the building.
