Beschreibung
The hill between the upper fortress and the upper market square has been known as Buß since time immemorial. The Bußtor gate, which was part of the inner ring of town walls and provided access to the old town centre at the top of Bußgasse, was named after it. The former 'Buß' inn stands in the corner between Bußgasse and the footpath to the Schütte, which leads via the Horber Kreuzweg up to the Ottilienkapelle and the Schütteturm. Behind it rises the tower-shaped Haus am Buß, which towers far above the surrounding roof ridges. The timber-framed building with a wooden plank wall was erected on a stone foundation in 1439.
