Caesar's house

The Cäsarsche house was a late-baroque residential building on Schössergasse 25 / corner Sporergasse in Dresden. It was built in 1781 and destroyed in 1945.

description

Since April 1747 the house belonged to Johanna Juliana Caesar, the wife of the war commissioner Caesar. Presumably under their children and heirs, the Electoral Saxon Chamber Secretary Carl Leopold Caesar and his wife Johanna Juliana, the house was rebuilt in the Rococo style in 1781 - in the address book from 1797 Carl Leopold Caesar is specified as the resident of the house, as The maiden Juliane Sophie Caesar is called the owner. While older research still accepted Johann Christoph Knöffel as the master builder, May and Hertzig see the master builder Samuel Locke as the design architect .
