Dinglingerhaus
The Dinglingerhaus was a baroque residential building in Dresden . It was designed by Matthäus Daniel Pöppelmann in 1711 at the earliest and built before 1716 at the Jüdenhof in the immediate vicinity of the Johanneum . The builder was probably Abraham Thäme, but it got its name as the home of the jeweler Georg Christoph Dinglinger (1668–1728), who bought it in May 1716.
It was "one of the most valuable baroque Dresden town houses" and, according to Fritz Löffler, was the only example of how the Zwinger style was reflected in Dresden residential buildings. Walter May, on the other hand, describes Pöppelmann's building, which was built in front of the Wall pavilion in the Zwinger , as a result of the latest architectural developments in Prague that Pöppelmann got to know on a trip.
In 2015 and 2016, the house was largely rebuilt true to the original, partly including parts of the basement that were still there.
The building is not to be confused with the also mostly as Dinglingerhaus designated, during World War II destroyed home of the court goldsmith Johann Melchior Dinglinger (1664-1731) in the Frauengasse 9 (later Frauenstraße 9), in whose court the still existing Dinglinger fountain was.
Description and significance in terms of architectural history
The five-axis corner house with a facade strictly symmetrical to the Jüdenhof had three full floors, a mezzanine floor and a mansard roof . The central axis, which was only slightly protruding like a risalit, was crowned by a stepped dwelling , in front of whose central window an exit was indicated by a balustrade . There was a smaller dormer on each side of the dwelling . The building through the belt has been divided vertically cornice above the ground floor up to the cranked cornice extending Pilaster whose console-like capitals carrying the cornice. The four-axis side facade on Sporergasse leading to Schloßstraße was made considerably simpler.
The ground floor on the side facing the Jüdenhof was largely without decoration. It was dominated by the portal located in the central axis, on both sides of which there were two tall rectangular windows with no casings , the only decoration of which was a large keystone crowning the segmental arch . The ground floor facade facing Sporergasse was structured very similarly, albeit without a portal, only with an entrance to one of the four shops in the house. There was a cranked cornice above the first floor.
All axes of the house were framed by colossal pilasters - unusual for Dresden town houses . The central axis was slightly convex outwards, the second and fourth axes slightly concave inwards and thus set back behind the risalit-like central axis. This gave the two outer axes a certain risalit character. The two recessed axes were largely unadorned, the only detail being the vertical plaster mirrors between the windows . With very restrained sills no window jambs were seen.
Axes one and five had straight roofs and fillings above the windows of the first and second floors. There, cartridges with bands and tendrils were attached to smooth, concave plastered surfaces. The sills were adorned with small consoles and bow-shaped plaster mirrors placed just above the roof gables. The central axis had even richer details. The window on the first floor was above a small false balustrade. There was a segmental arch roof with straight side parts above the window. Below this were rectangular fields with floral decorations, directly above the lintel. The suspicion also had a keystone in the form of a grimace mask . Small consoles were placed under all the windows in the central axis.
The capitals of the pilasters were stuccoed and made in fantasy shapes. They are composed of beaded volutes with cloth hangings over flowers. The central risalit was extended above the gable by a three-part dwelling. Two smaller windows closed in the segmental arch framed the large central window, located behind a balustrade slightly curved outwards, which was crowned by a segmental arch canopy resting on two pilaster strips framing the window . The large segment arch was filled with a shell and fine tendrils. There was a smaller dormer above each of the two outer axes.
The ground floor was entered through the gate entrance. The stairs to the floors were in the extension of the entrance, side doors in the driveway led to the sales rooms. There was a small atrium right next to the stairs . The four main living rooms on the upper floors were arranged as an enfilade , the largest room on each floor was in the central axis to the Jüdenhof, one room was designed as a corner room facing Sporergasse, another had two windows only facing Sporergasse. Small utility rooms were housed around the almost square inner courtyard and the stairs.
In the opinion of Stefan Hertzig, the Dinglingerhaus am Jüdenhof represents "the undisputed artistic highlight" for Pöppelmann's community center as well as for all of Dresden's bourgeois building trade at that time:
“Not through a staccato of plastered surfaces, but through an actually present - but very gentle and barely noticeable - swinging out of the central axes as well as their continuation in the three dwelling houses of the roof, a strong uniformity and an artistic effect of great beauty and grace was achieved. "
“The facade of the house was actually vibrated as a whole in its center. In spite of this, the undulating movement of this building was again almost imperceptibly subordinate to the flat, cubic character of the building due to its gentle, flat design. "
history
Georg Christoph Dinglinger died in 1746 at the age of 77. The Dresden address books from 1797 onwards provide information about the owners and residents after this period.
The address of the house has been Jüdenhof 5 since the street-by-street numbering of Dresden houses in the middle of the 19th century. Previously it was listed as house 387. During the National Socialist era , the name Jüdenhof was deleted, and the house was subsequently given the address Neumarkt 18.
As early as the 18th century, the house was not only inhabited by the owner's family. The first entry in a Dresden address book can be found in 1797. It reads:
"No. 387.
Fr. Christiane Sophie Gänzelmann, widow of the deceased. Bailiff to Frauenstein.
Mr. Anton Sawicki.
" Jacob Seydelmann , professor at the electoral art academy here.
" Cstian Benj. Wilisch, General Court Treasurer.
(This house is owned by Mr. Ernst August Steinbach.) "
In addition to the parties living in the house, there are also several shops on the ground floor for 1797. The names are the Beutler Kepler, the plumber Koehler, the stone merchant widow Weisse and on the side facing Sporergasse the long knife smith Fröhlich.
By 1831 at the latest, the house was owned by the widow of the Dresden painter Jakob Crescenz Seydelmann, mentioned in 1797, and the miniature painter Apollonia Seydelmann , a member of the Dresden Art Academy. After Apollonia Seydelmann's death in 1840, the house became the property of her daughter Luise (1799–1874), who had been married to a Colonel von Zedlitz since 1817. Luise died in 1874, in the Dresden address book from 1904 a "Louise von Zedlitz, retired Oberhofmeisterin" is noted as the owner of the house, in the 1930s and 40s the owners are "Kleinfeld Erben".
Since the Dresden address books have also listed the tenants of all listed houses since 1848, information about the shops and residents in the house can be given from this time on. At least the heads of the family are known, since wives, children and staff are not mentioned except in the case of personal employment or other significance.
For example, the address book from 1851 on the ground floor of the Dinglingerhaus lists the business premises and apartment of the court watchmaker Weisse, who had been listed as a "small watchmaker" at this address since 1836 - as a tenant in the attic, not yet with business premises - and a shoemaker named Venus. The von Zedlitz couple lived on the first floor, Baron Gustav Bodo von Bodenhausen on the second, tailor Ludwig Moritz Drevermann on the third and a Mr. Bergner, "plumber and lamp manufacturer", is called on the fourth floor, the converted attic.
In the decades that followed, there were shops on the ground floor. The address books from 1861 and 1866 still include the court watchmaker Weisse and the shoemakers Venus and Süwer.
In the address book of 1904 a sporemeister and the shoemaker Otto Magister are entered, on the first floor there is also a "non-profit association" with its secretary Ernst Seidler. In the address books of 1932 and 1943/44 the entry of the company Hüning & Kleinfeld can be found for the ground floor and the first floor of the house . It was a glazing, glass cutting and glass painting.
The Dinglingerhaus was destroyed in World War II, the ruins later demolished. After the construction of the Palace of Culture, a parking lot was created on the former site of the building.
reconstruction
Even after its destruction, the Dinglingerhaus remained in the public consciousness as one of the incunabula of Dresden Baroque architecture. Its true-to-original reconstruction was therefore an integral part of the first considerations for the reconstruction of the Neumarkt area , which were still made in the 1980s . Even during the bitter discussions about the future shape of the Neumarkt, which were led around the turn of the millennium by the proponents of historical reconstruction and the representatives of modern design, the reconstruction of the Dinglingerhaus was never questioned by the latter.
After the sale of what is now Quartier VII.2 to the Kimmerle GbR Jüdenhof (Höchstädt ad Donau, vdd Michael Kimmerle) at the beginning of 2013, archaeological excavations began in April of the same year. a. brought to light the relatively well-preserved cellar of the Dinglingerhaus with partially preserved vaulted barrels and a Gothic portal. Because of their value, these relics were incorporated into the reconstruction of the building. The historic Dinglingerkeller can be admired today when visiting the restaurant of the so-called Jüdenhof Dresden. The foundation stone was laid on February 26, 2015, and it was completed in 2017.
