history

At the beginning of the 19th century, only 50 houses were still in open construction in front of the Easter gate. In 1849 areas of the Ostertor district were incorporated and the citizens were given full citizenship of Bremen. Around 100 to 150 row houses were newly built in the 1850s.

The two-storey, symmetrical suburban houses with plastered facades and hip roofs were built in the classicism style from 1843 to 1857 .
In 1843, the building contractor Hinrich Depken built an assembly (No. 14, 18, 20, 22, 24) of semi-detached houses in a now closed construction for the upper class. House no. 12 was designed by Johann Heinrich Willig in 1852; No. 10 is from 1857.

The house type Bremer Haus , which occurs frequently in the district , was built in Bremen between the mid-19th century and the 1930s. The basement as a basement , the deep building shape and the side entrance are characteristic.
These houses differ with their central entrance with the entrance stairs to the main floor.

The group of houses at Bleicherstraße No. 41/57 was then built around 1865 on the same street.

Today (2018) the houses are used for residential purposes, but also as an office, daycare center and practice.
