Das vornehme Danziger Wohnhaus der Barock- und Rokokozeit entwickelte einen durchaus bodenstandigen Typus des Hauseinganges, den sog Beischlag. In der warmen Jahreszeit spielte sich ein gut Teil des hauslichen Lebens auf diesen Freiterrassen ab, ahnlich wie heutzutage auf Balkon oder Veranda, als deren Vorlaufer diese Beischlage angesehen werden konnen.
