Ensemble Schmiedstraße (Weilheim in Upper Bavaria)
The ensemble Schmiedstraße in Weilheim in Upper Bavaria , the county seat of Upper Bavaria district Weilheim-Schongau , is an architectural ensemble , under monument stands.
The ensemble includes Schmiedstrasse (with buildings 1 to 26, 28, 30 and 32) to the northwest of the market square and ends at the Schmiedtor, which was demolished in 1873. The street, where numerous blacksmiths and sculptors worked and lived, was the main northern axis to and from the center of Weilheim.
The three- to four-storey town houses from the 16th to the 19th centuries shape the character of the ensemble with their contrast between the eaves and gable fronts . Shops have mostly been built in on the ground floor, and their large shop windows disrupt the street scene.
A reference to the former function of the street as a supra-local connection route was the former Bräuwastl inn, built around 1840/50 with its broad facade. A hotel extension (no. 19) that was built at the beginning of the 20th century is noticeable among the otherwise simply designed houses due to its representative character in the shapes of the geometric Art Nouveau .
Opposite the former guest house rises a series of simple houses that are uniform in eaves and storey heights as well as the exterior design, which were built after the fire of 1834. A group of four gabled buildings opposite the confluence with Eisenkramergasse deserves special mention, the oldest of which dates from the second half of the 16th century.
