Gabled houses in Düsseldorf
The gabled houses in Düsseldorf have a long tradition. In the Gothic style, staircase and half-timbered gables were predominant. Curved pinnacle gables, stepped gables and triangular gables in the style of the Renaissance were to be seen in Düsseldorf. In the Baroque style, the gabled house in Düsseldorf was influenced by various architecture: for example, by the southern Dutch -southern German architecture, by the large Düsseldorf sacred buildings such as St. Andrew's Church and Jesuit College in the Italian Baroque style, by Ehreshoven Castle and Dutch classicism . Overall, the baroque gabled house was influenced by Italian-South German, Italian, Italian-French and Dutch architecture.

Gothic
The house Suitbertus-Stiftsplatz 14 and the Lewen- or delivery house show Gothic stepped gables . A Gothic half-timbered house was located at Bolkerstraße 7.
Renaissance
Curved peg gables
At the beginning of the Düsseldorf renaissance there was still the “conservative direction” with its “curved pinnacle gables”. One example of this was the double-gabled old town hall, where the arch line corresponded to the gable curvature. The "Welschen" gables (also "curly gable") in the style of the renaissance of the Düsseldorf town hall are remarkable. The house of the “Prince of Orange” at Burgplatz 12 also had a curly pinnacle gable. Likewise the former corner house Kurzestrasse and Burgplatz. Both gables are stylistically related to the curly pinnacle of the Old Town Hall. The same goes for the house Zum Goldenen Hirsch on the market square from 1558. The house at Kurz Strasse 6 shows a stepped gable, filled with a quarter circle from step to step, "that is how the gradual transition from stepped gable to volute gable in the area of the Lower Rhine brick building was originally."

Stepped gable
In addition to the "then modern French gables" of the renaissance of town houses, there were also Gothic stepped gables. The Gothic tradition of the stepped gable persists even in the period of the High Renaissance (from the middle of the 16th century) in northern and central Germany ( post-Gothic ). The Elector House is an example of this.
The post-Gothic is also described by Paul Sültenfuß:
“What else Düsseldorf has to show apart from the brick gable façades that have been handed down in illustrations will soon be listed. Since the form developed in such a simple way from the material of the small-format material, it lasted well beyond the Gothic period - even into the days of the Baroque style. "
In “The Art Monuments of the City and District of Düsseldorf”, Paul Clemen names various examples of houses with stepped gables:
“The shape of the stepped stepped gable persists into the 16th and 17th centuries; good characteristic examples of this kind can be found in the house "Zur golden Krone", Altestadt 13, from 1625, the corner house at Burgplatz 16, the corner house on Bilkerstrasse after Karlsplatz, called "Im Spiegel", from 1625, 1887 again, the house "Zum Churfürst", Flingerstrasse 36, from 1627. Characteristic of the 17th century is the position of the gable facing the street, the narrowness of the facade at a fairly significant height, the large number of windows with stone crosses close together. A whole group of such houses can be found at Mühlenstrasse 16, 18, 20, 22, 28; the four-story houses 15 and 17 opposite have still retained the small panes. Similar groups in Kurzestrasse 9 (from 1697), 14.7, 6 and at Burgplatz 8 and 10, Flingerstrasse 36-44. "
Triangular gable
Triangular gables show the Jan Wellem Chapel and the Loreto Chapel in the style of the Tuscan Renaissance.
Baroque
In “Die Kunstdenkmäler des Stadt- und Landkreis Düsseldorf”, Paul Clemen describes various examples of gabled houses in the Baroque style :
“In addition, there are the curved gables with round ends, volutes and horizontal cornices. Good examples, of this type are the houses at Ratingerstraße 30, the beer brewery Zum Junge Bären, Ratingerstraße 24, 8, here with pilasters in the gable and a bearded head at the end, 5, further the town hall pharmacy on Marktplatz 7, with shell gables and volutes, the houses Flingerstraße 55, 57, both more elegant in structure and richer in gable decoration. "
In Das Düsseldorfer Wohnhaus up to the middle of the 19th century Paul Sültenfuß names various gabled houses in Düsseldorf in the Baroque style :
“At first the old, narrow, three-axle town house with a gable end [...] was retained for a long time [...] But the gables of the houses now took on more varied shapes than in the previous century [like the house] Krämerstr. 8 [further the house] Ratingerstr. 8. So at the houses in Flingerstr. 38, Zollstrasse. 6, 8, 10, Marktplatz 7 […] the two houses Rheinort No. 10 and 14 […] residential building Rheinstr. 2 […] Next to the Rathausapotheke Marktplatz 7 […] the residential building Marktplatz 10 […] Then the houses in Neustr. 26, Flingerstr. 3 and 1 [...] So much for the baroque gabled house . "
Southern Dutch-Southern German architecture
Vertical division of the gable
Paul Sültenfuß explains in Das Düsseldorfer Wohnhaus up to the middle of the 19th century how the gabled houses in the Baroque style were influenced by the architecture of the southern Netherlands. In 1648, the Amsterdam City Hall marked the beginning of the Baroque in the Netherlands with facades with volute or triangular gables. Furthermore, gabled houses in the Baroque style were shaped by the southern German architecture. The result of these Dutch-South German influences was the Baroque volute gable in Düsseldorf with vertical or horizontal structure. Examples of the vertical structure of the baroque volute gable in Düsseldorf were the house "Zur Stadt Rom" and the house Ratingerstraße 8. In the house "Zur Stadt Rom" the upper part of the gable was structured by pilasters with diamond patterns. Ratingerstraße 8 also has a vertical structure of the gable with pilasters; these were pillars with fluted pilasters with Ionic capitals .
“But the gables of the houses now took on more varied shapes than in the previous century. You have to reckon with connections via the neighboring Jülich region to the southern Netherlands, but also with connections to southern German architecture. At the house at Krämerstr. 8 [House "Zur Stadt Rom"], the upper part of the gable, which is divided three times by horizontal bands, is supported by pilasters with diamond patterns [...] that extend through the whole gable [...] The gable division is not dissimilar at Ratinger Straße 8 , only that here, instead of pillars decorated with diamond patterns, fluted pilasters with Ionic capitals, and the upper end shows a segmental arch instead of the triangular gable shape [...] "
Gable drawing of the house "Zur Stadt Rom" by Paul Sültenfuß
Horizontal structure of the gable
The result of the southern Dutch-southern German influence was also the deliberate emphasis on the horizontal structure of the baroque gable: “With the other gable forms, the vertical structure through pilasters is omitted. The horizontal structure is emphasized all the more decisively as a support for the volutes or double volute pairs ”. For example, at Flingerstrasse 38, Zollstrasse 6, 8 and 10 (“Parallels to the Southern Dutch Baroque”), Marktplatz 7, the old town hall pharmacy. The upper gable surfaces also had large round ventilation holes. The structure of the facade of the house Rheinort 12 is also South Dutch and Dutch: “The neighboring house [Rheinort] No. 12 is reminiscent of the Dutch and southern Dutch division of the facade through closely lined up window openings. This was of course due to the narrow property. "

Undivided gable
Paul Sültenfuß describes the “old local tradition of the smooth, d. H. Gable, which is not divided by the horizontal division […] Take the two houses at Rheinort No. 10 and 14 (Fig. 53). At Rheinort 10, the facade does not show any high horizontal structure […] “The local tradition of the undivided, smooth gable would persist despite the southern Dutch and southern German relations.
Italian architecture
Concave curved gable line
An example of the influence on the Düsseldorf residential building of St. Andreas, the Jesuit college, is the five-axis residential building on Rheinstrasse 2. The concave curved gable line, which also appears again on Ratingerstrasse 32, is remarkable. Next to it is the stone portal with pilasters, richly profiled cover plate and console, which are stylistically related to the facade and courtyard portals of the Jesuit college. Furthermore, the symmetrical position of the windows around the central axis, as well as the windows of the central axis, which float on the facade cornices with the upper strip of their window walls. Stylistically related to the arrangement of the round upper windows of the Church of St. Andrew, how the upper bar of the window frames relates to the facade cornice. The St. Andrews Church and the Jesuit College are the models for the new, precise window frames, as well as the richer profiling of cornices and beams. The houses Rheinstraße 2 (concave curved gable line) and Ratingerstraße 32 (concave curved gable line), the Rathausapotheke Marktplatz 7 (double volute pairs) and the house Marktplatz 10 (richly structured portal) were influenced by the magnificent monumental buildings of the church. They are considered to be the most beautiful baroque town houses in Düsseldorf.
“[...] What is new about this building [Rheinort 10] is the rhythmic distribution of the windows and it is obviously not unaffected by the“ rhythm of the masses ”at St. Andrew's and the Jesuit College. Just notice how beautiful the windows of the two upper floors are placed between the ground floor and the effective structure of the gable, or for what deliberate intention the right basement neck is drawn higher than the one between it and the door [...] Only with wider facades apply the teachings given by St. Andrew and the Jesuit College, as well as the old castle and the later buildings with their rhythmic facade division. The best example of the influence of St. Andreas, the Jesuit college, is the stately five-axis residential building on Rheinstrasse 2 (Fig. 53). Note the concave curved gable line, which is also used at Ratingerstr. 32 returns; (Fig. 62) the beautifully drawn stone portal with pilasters, richly profiled cover plate and consoles, and compare the facade and courtyard portals of the Jesuit college; the symmetrical arrangement of the windows around the central axis; then the windows of this central axis, which with the upper bar of their frames float on the cornices of the facade, and for this compare again the arrangement of the round upper windows at St. Andrew and how the upper transverse bar of the window frames there relates to the cornice of the facade. As for the new, exact window frames that are now appearing everywhere in Düsseldorf, St. Andreas and the college are again responsible for the richer profiling of cornices and beams [...] "
Dutch architecture
The gabled houses of the Baroque period were also shaped by the Dutch, classical-style Ehreshoven Castle: Examples are the house Neustraße 26 and the house Marktstraße 8. Both buildings show a similar volute drawing, dome pyramids and a strange frame shape of the round windows (above with a round cover plate and below the loop ends diverging). Richard Klapheck sees in New Architecture in the Rhineland these buildings are stylistically related to Ehreshoven Castle.
“In addition to the Rathausapotheke Marktplatz 7 with its double volute pairs, the Marktplatz 10 residential building is one of the most stately baroque bourgeois houses in Düsseldorf with a portal that is so richly structured that is rarely found anywhere else in the city. Then the houses in Neustr. 26, Flingerstr. 3 and 1. For the volute drawing by Neustr. 26, the dome pyramids and the strange frame shapes of the round windows above with a round cover plate and below the loop ends running apart, a similar shape returns at Marktstr. 8 again, (Fig. 67) Klapheck has already pointed out the relationship with Ehreshoven Castle in Oberbergisches Land. The not insignificant positions of the Lords of Ehreshoven at the Düsseldorf court, the Lords and later Counts of Nesselrode underline Klapheck's thesis, which formally has a lot to offer "
The baroque house Flingerstraße 3, which was destroyed in the war, was influenced by the architecture of Amsterdam. It showed Dutch-classical influence. The gable structure was high and rectangular with a flat arch. The volutes were without a strong profile or relief.
The Douvenhaus was also an example of a residential building in the Baroque style, which was significantly influenced by Dutch classicism: “What is remarkable is the pronounced classicism of this Düsseldorf architecture from the beginning of the 18th century, which in any case depends on the Italian master builders of the court and how in Holland and in Klevian expressed the influence of Palladio ”. “It speaks the same language as the opposite [Joseph's] chapel and the adjoining monastery of the Carmelites, i. H. that of Dutch Classicism ”. It was a brick building, on whose dark red surface the light door and window frames stood out brightly. It was once one of the finest houses that Johann Wilhelm gave to the city in 1713. The court painter had painted many portraits. So for three emperors, three empresses, five kings, seven queens and many princes.
Ital.-South German, Italian, Italian-French and Dutch architecture

The large outlines of the requirements for the design of the baroque Düsseldorf town house consisted of Italian-South German, Italian, Italian-French and Dutch influences. An example of this is the house "Zum golden Helm": "[it] is an extremely characteristic example of the various influences that gave the Düsseldorf house of the Baroque period its peculiar and varied character [...]". The facade shows the influence of St. Andrew's Church: The volute lines of the town house indicate the facade of St. Andreas (southern German-Italian influence). The different baroque window shapes of the house on the golden helmet are related to Bensberg Castle and the Düsseldorf castle project (Italian-French influence). The uniform, summarizing frame composition of the portal and central window is Dutch-classicistic thanks to the volutes at the foot of the sidebars of this window. This is stylistically related to the composition on the facade of the Chapel of the Carmelites (Joseph's Chapel): "It is a characteristic Dutch-Classicist motif to concentrate the entire decorative decoration of a facade on the central axis through such a comprehensive frame". The motif of the floating fruit wreaths in the gable can also be traced back to "Dutch-classicist influence, which was also everywhere in the countries on the Lower Rhine and in neighboring Westphalia".
Johannes Lollio's no longer preserved Baroque Palace Benrath from 1660/1669 also had a decisive influence on the construction of the listed building at Citadellstrasse 7 , Polish Institute in the Karlstadt district in 1684. The town house and the baroque palace that no longer existed have something in common: For example, the “clear symmetrical layout of the floor plan like the facade. The piece chimneys still preserved in the old orangery in Benrath are also vividly reminiscent of the one in Citadellstrasse ”. But the Dutch classicism can also be seen on the community center on Citadellstrasse. For example, above the usual baroque window frames with donkey tubes, “again Dutch fruit hangings under a beam supported by consoles and garlands around the small round window in the bay gable”. The two-storey plastered house with courtyard wings was built by the electoral chamber fourier Johann Georg Geinier. In 1779, the court councilor Daniels acquired it from the Daniels family of lawyers. The house Citadellstr. 7 is "the characteristic representative of the influence of the monumental buildings under Wolfgang Wilhelm and Philipp Wilhelm on the Düsseldorf residential building [...]".
