For its architecural and constructional value as well as for the traditional building materials used the house was labelled a monument of exceptional cultural value by the state authorities. Located in the very centre of town, the house nowadays functions as an independent building with a permanent exhibition and operates as a constituent part of the National Museum. The methods applied during the reconstruction are presented in this paper which provides a detailed insight into two different restoration procedures of both exterior construction details and interior architectural characteristic elements. From a museological aspect, the interior of the house reflects the typical interior of a 19th century town house and contains origina. household items, which is a true representation of the period's life-style.
