The so-called Killingerhaus, now a tourist information office and city museum, is one of the most beautiful of the Idstein half-timbered houses and has the richest carved ornamentation. It was built in 1615 by the count's clerk Johann Conrad Killing (d. 1630) and his wife Anna Margarethe Loeber, daughter of the Nassau bailiff in (Bad) Ems. The Killing couple remained childless. That is why the house has had new owners over the centuries. In 1916 the city acquired the listed property.
