History and description

The residential building was erected around 1770 as a two-story, symmetrical plastered building with seven window axes and a mansard roof . As a building owner is on Schloss Koepenick resident Princess Henriette Marie narrated that the representative residential buildings erected for her equerry. Soon, however, the house came into the possession of their court preacher Benjamin de Saint Aubin.

The facade received a baroque curved portal frame and is based on the Frederician Rococo . Despite later diverse uses, the residential building has essentially retained its original floor plan. The passage in the gabled central risalit and the winding staircase with an oval center and rococo railing have also been preserved . Construction experts suspect that the elaborate staircase construction was made by craftsmen from Köpenick. It was based on models from villas in Potsdam and Berlin. In the middle of the 19th century the left part of the ground floor and at the beginning of the 20th century the right part of the ground floor were converted into shops.

There is a shed built in the 18th century in the courtyard . The courtyard building adjoining the right side wing and the left side wing date from the 19th century. In the program for the protection of urban monuments , it was restored and the special features of the building have been preserved.

The name Anderson's Palais goes back to the Anderson family, who owned the house from 1798.

In the 20th century, the building remained privately owned for a long time and the ground floor housed commercial and service facilities. In the 1940 address book at Schloßstraße 15 you can find the owner Helene Trometer (co-owner of a boatyard), a funeral home and a shoe store.
