House no 8 is one of the oldest houses in the Market Square in Wrocław. In 1672 a new eastern facade was added with a figurai composition depicting the Emperor Leopold I and seven electors. During the eighteent and nineteenth century the illusionistic polychromies were supplemented and to a considerable extent repainted due to the poor state of their preservation. In the 1960s the surviving fragments of the paintings were secured. Scattered on the wall, darkened and illegible, they ceased to fulfil their original function. A decision made in 1991 to continue conservation also recognised the necessity of reconstructing the unique painting upon the basis of iconographie material obtained from Marburg. Conservation work was completed in 1993
