Architecture and history

The two-story brick building was built in the 1880s not far from the Chaussee as a villa-like house. The design of the historically designed house came from the master mason Heinrich Dittmer. The building has a central risalit on the ground floor of which there is an open loggia . The loggia has three round arches in the style of Palladian villas. Otherwise, the building is simply structured with pilaster strips .

At the beginning of the 20th century, the Gommeraner brewery owner Ernst Döring set up a restaurant in the house. It served as an excursion restaurant for the neighboring Biederitzer Busch . On the back of the house in 1909 a large one to two-storey hall building was built in half-timbered construction based on a design by the architect Geburek. The hall had a stage and a dance floor. The extension, designed in the late Art Nouveau style , was covered with flat hipped roofs. The area in which the hall is located was surrounded on three sides by a low walkway. The exterior and interior design, especially the originally existing finely structured lattice windows , were later simplified.

In 1933, opponents of the regime were imprisoned and tortured in this area by the National Socialists. On April 13, 1945 there was a massacre of prisoners on a death march in the vicinity of the house . The memorial stone in front of the house reminds of this.

The building was considered to be significant in terms of architecture and culture and a typical example of a recreational facility in the vicinity of the city.

On the afternoon of January 25, 2013, the timber-framed part of the building burned down as a result of an arson . There had been an arson attack in the property two weeks earlier. The house had been empty for a long time. Only the massive southern part of the building was used by the police sports club. Shortly before the destruction, the Magdeburg fishing club had expressed an interest in using the timber-framed part as a training facility.

In the local register of monuments , the restaurant is listed as an architectural monument under number 094 82484.
