The property "Zum gülden Hirschen" (today Ludwigstrasse 75), whose house sign features a stag with a painted body and a sculpted head with antlers, was acquired in 1610 by the gingerbread baker Christian Mair (Mayr, died January 27, 1634) from the baker Georg Wager. Mair is listed in the St. Lorenz church's death register as a gingerbread baker at the "Zum gülden Hirschen" near the Spitlertor (Hospital Gate). His epitaph also depicts the stag (grave no. N 21 in the Rochus Cemetery).

In 1574, it was acquired by the gingerbread baker Thoma Koberger, who lived there until his death in 1602. In 1833, it was purchased by the gingerbread baker Jakob Göß and passed to his son Georg Göß in 1874 (see Wilhelm Schwemmer: Die Bürgerhäuser der Nürnberger Altstadt aus reichsstädtischer Zeit. Erhaltunger Bestand der Lorenzer Seite [The Townhouses of Nuremberg's Old Town from the Imperial City Period. Preserved Buildings on the Lorenzer Side], Nuremberg 1970, p. 121). The Nuremberg gingerbread company Georg Goess GmbH & Co. KG still uses the stag in its company logo today. See Schwemmer, ibid.: The house was severely damaged in 1943. The ground floor and first floor were also unusable, but the sandstone facades and largely the interior walls remained intact. In 1946, the house received a temporary roof above the first floor.
