Old Market 12

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Alter Markt 12 is the postal address of a listed historic building on the south side of the Alter Markt in the German Hanseatic city of Stralsund .

The house Alter Markt 12 in Stralsund, behind it the Nikolaikirche

The four-storey baroque eaves house was almost completely destroyed in 1717 by the then owner Christian Lüning, a grain and painting trader, after being severely damaged during the siege of Stralsund by Danes, Brandenburgers and Saxons in 1715, when it was hit by nine bombs and 100 bullets newly built from brick and plastered. The second floor of the house with the postal address Alter Markt A 194 at the time was built in half-timbered construction . Lüning paid 900 thalers for the restoration alone until December 1718, according to a letter to the city council.

In 1756 Johann Heinrich Röver acquired the house, who in 1795 bequeathed it to his son Jürgen Friedrich Röver (both were goldsmiths ). From 1811 it belonged to master cobbler Christian Tetzloff, from 1859 to government surveyor Carl Schorler and from 1861 to master tailor Adolph Tönnies. Tönnies opened a “men's cloakroom and cloth shop” on the ground floor of the building, which was given its present address at Alter Markt 12 in 1869. At the end of the 1920s, Buchbinder Karl Schmidt acquired the house, who on February 17, 1929 asked the city for permission to redesign the courtyard. In the space created in this way, he operated a cutting machine.

In 1941 the building was subjected to an inventory in order to have it “de-sholded” like other houses on the Alter Markt and the bordering Semlower Straße , although this was no longer the case with this house due to the Second World War.

After the war there was a pet shop in the house. In 1973 it was almost completely rebuilt. It has belonged to Jana and Eduard Albrecht since 1997 and houses a café .

The house is located in the core area of ​​the city ​​area recognized by UNESCO as a world cultural heritage site of the “ historic old towns of Stralsund and Wismar ”. It is entered in the list of architectural monuments in Stralsund with the number 13.
