In the course of its existence, the building served for fully different purposes. It was built as a farm building for grape processing and wine storage. At the beginning of the 19th century, the fermenting room was installed here. In the end, it was used as a dwelling house for a family of farm labourer. In the beginning of the 18th century, the winepress house and the cellar came into being because of the adjacent vineyards in the Stará hora tract of vineyards. Since 1802, it was owned by Jewish trader and distiller Salomon Winter from Kunovice. After 1860, it served as a dwelling for the family of farm labourer Martin Kolůch for one hundred years.
The oldest part of the house consists of the winepress house and the cellar with an elevated chamber. The large fermenting room accessible through the side entrance was created by considerable elongation and deepening of this chamber. The hitherto winepress house was divided by a new floor - ceiling of the lower room, which gave rise to the habitable room. At that time, the open-hearth kitchen with a bread oven, an open fireplace and a chimney were built.
