The structure has four floors. The two lower floors were built of sandstone, and the upper floors were half-timbered. On the top floor was the studio of the Renaissance artist. Here you can find the tools with which the painter created, as well as elements of printing, which were used many centuries ago. On the roof of the building there are lucarnas - hearing windows. They go outside.
A special extension was made near the entrance of the building. It used to be used as an exhibition centre. It now houses a cinema room. It is used for exhibitions and conferences. During its existence, twenty-four people became owners of the building. As a museum, Dürer House was opened only in 1949.
