It is said to be an important historic building as it has hardly changed over the ages. Timbers found in the demonstrably remodelled east gable come from the year 1268 (the year that they were felled). The building that stands today is, however, much older, likely by as much as 200 or 250 years.
It is regarded as a historically significant building because it has remained largely unchanged for centuries. Wood found in the clearly renovated eastern gable dates back to 1268 (the year they were cut). The existing structure, however, is likely much older than these elements by approximately 200 or 250 years.
