Supported by both an 1879 Birdseye map of New Holstein, as well as deeds, Hans Banderob had erected a tavern by no later than 1879 at present-day 2018-24 Main Street. However, Banderob’s establishment was originally just one story in height. Following a number of ownership changes between 1886 and 1894, which included the Jung & Borchert Brewing Company (later known as Pabst), Adolph Weber purchased the property (in 1894) and it was during his ownership (through 1916) that the structure was remodeled to include a second story with a tower. Sanborn maps indicate, however, that the rear wing was added between 1911 and 1929, with the final enlargement of that wing (to the east) occurring after 1929. The building last functioned as a bar in 2009-2010. |
