The cookshop is a small street in the Weichbild old town in Braunschweig . It connects the Brabandtstraße with the Eiermarkt or the street An der Martinikirche and runs on the south side of the Gewandhaus .

history

The cookshop can be traced back to the early 14th century - possibly even to the year 1291. The majority of the half-timbered houses in it seem to have belonged to the old town council; this is documented for five of the houses until at least the 18th century.

Around 1330 the name of the street was "achter den schernen" , whereby "schernen" stood for Scharn . In 1572 the street was named "de garkoken" , followed by "in Garkuchen" in 1606 and "auf der Garküche" in 1671, the year in which the city lost its independence. Since 1758 it has been called the “cookshop” . In which house the eponymous cookshop was located is unknown today.

The row of houses on the northern side of the food stall was directly adjacent to the Gewandhaus. Before the building of the Braunschweig Chamber of Commerce and Industry was built there from 1907 according to plans by the architect Georg Lübke , the street was built on with small half-timbered houses, the north sides of which leaned directly against the south side of the Gewandhaus. Only the last house in this row, located on the corner of the Garküche / An der Martinikirche (No. 9), was built from stone in 1794 by Christian Gottlob Langwagen for the sacrifice of the Martinikirche . After the building was almost completely destroyed by bombing during the Second World War in 1944, except for the outer walls, it was rebuilt in 1946 in the appearance of 1909 (when it was connected to the new IHK). Opposite the house built by long wagons was the “Ratsapotheke” (Ratsapotheke), which has been occupied since 1476 and no longer exists on the corner of the Garküche / Eiermarkt.
