description: The Rabenhaus was built at the end of the 15th century and was one of the toll facilities of the town of Braunau (a four-story storage building). From 1707 to 1765, it served as a brewery; later, it became the office and residence of Johann Gottlieb Kattenpeck, the last court clerk of Julbach and toll collector of Braunau.Since that time, the “Bavarian Lion” has been located on the 24-meter-high gable—the tallest in the old town.Although the Innviertel was ceded to Austria in 1779, Kattenpeck continued to reside here in this house in Austria until 1781 as chief toll collector and court clerk of Simbach.The building was spared by the fire during the great city fire of 1874.
