Architecture and history
The residential building on the street side, eight bundles wide, was built around 1550, probably in 1551. A dendchronological examination of parts of the roof structure revealed that the wood used was felled in 1549. On the three-storey half - timbered house there are remains of the originally existing fan rosettes, although no complete rosette has been preserved. In addition, there are valleys with decorative nails and cylinder-shaped beam heads .
Presumably in the Baroque era , a black kitchen was added to the courtyard-facing part of the ground floor . The remaining kitchen has a square floor plan and occupies the entire height of the ground floor. There are four brick arches on the sides, resting on sandstone pillars . The arches are closed with walls made of sandstone. In later times the use of the black kitchen was given up and the room was closed at the top with a small, herringbone brick vault.
There is a cellar below the black kitchen.
Around 1860, leather dealer Carl Mantel converted it into a residential and commercial building. Mantel is still owned as the owner in 1878. The high ground floor was completely renewed during renovations and is now made of massive construction. In its southern half it has a gateway designed in the classicism style. The gate has a round-arched top and is carved.
The upper floors of the house protrude about 20 cm each. On the first floor, the half-timbered stands were moved, exchanged, remodeled or doubled on the sides. Originally present Fußwinkelhölzer and located under the beam heads lugs have been removed. In the course of the renovation, larger windows were also used and the framework bars moved accordingly. The compartments are walled up with bricks. Later modifications were carried out by the sculptor Friedrich Hohmeyer and the master butcher Karl Düsel .
Probably in the 19th century the building was increased by one floor. Walled compartments and windows are alternately inserted between the half-timbered posts. The wood used is sawn and less thick than the constructions on the first floor. The area of the ceiling beams between the two upper floors was completely renewed.
At the end of the 19th century, the facade was still designed in the form of classicism . The windows of the house were framed by a profiled frame, the windows on the ground floor were also crowned. The facade was plastered and the thresholds were highlighted with a profile plank or stucco elements.
In the courtyard there was an elongated wing that was built in the 17th century. The limestone roof and the framework of the wing were largely original. This outbuilding was demolished in the late 1990s.
Renovation work began in the late 1990s. Due to an infestation with dry rot , the facade on the courtyard side had to be completely removed and rebuilt. In addition, it was necessary to partially renew the wooden beam ceilings. The ceiling joists had a groove on the side into which clay wraps could be inserted. Due to the many alterations and the construction work that became necessary in the course of the renovation, only a few original components from the construction period in the 16th century are left.
