Janon
One of the oldest still preserved buildings in St. Ulrich village centre
Janon, once a twin farmhouse, but just a residential building today, was first mentioned in records in 1430. The remnants of the red quoins, red window framing and the year 1585 written on the façade are noteworthy. There is a relief with scissors and needle chiselled above the other symbols on the keystone of the pretty arched doorway, perhaps pointing to a family of tailors once working here. The building has had listed status since the 1950s. The western half of the building is uninhabited.
