Already since the 2nd half of the 19th century, a bank branch of the banking house Eppstein & Gunz, later of the Augsburg bank - and exchange business of the Bühler brothers existed in the previous building. Isaias Weiskopf took over the bank branch in 1888 and bought the property in 1897 after his marriage to Frieda Gump from Hürben. In 1904, the original building was demolished. Isaias Weiskopf had a new, representative larger residential and commercial building erected on the same site. In 1905, the Weiskopf banking house, the post office, a dentist and a textile store moved into the completed new building. Later, after the marriage of Isaias Weiskopf's daughter Bella to Jakob Spanier, the bank continued to operate under the name "Bankhaus Weiskopf und Spanier". After the Nazis seized power in 1933, the era of Bankhaus Weiskopf und Spanier came to an end. The Weiskopf family still managed to emigrate to the USA via London in 1939. The building passed by purchase to the city of Krumbach, which established there from 1940 a kindergarten, nursery and a nursery school.
