history

The Große Petergrube was first mentioned in Latin in 1285 as fossa sancti Petri . From 1383 it was called Petersgrove in Low German and from 1550 on it was called Grote Petergrove . It has only had its High German name since 1852. Most of the lots on the street are mentioned as developed at the end of the 13th century or beginning of the 14th century. The street is one of the most important ensembles in Lübeck's old town. The facades of consistently representative town houses reflect the entire architectural history of Lübeck from the brick gothic over brick Renaissance , the Baroque and Rococo to Classicism resist the first half of the 19th century. The necessary urban redevelopment of the Great Petersgrube began in the mid-1970s and was largely completed around 1985. The building block 61 towards Depenau was expanded in the western area towards the Trave towards the Lübeck University of Music , which today uses around two thirds of block 61 for its purposes as a university. In 2008, the Große Petersgrube served as one of the important outdoor locations for the remake of Buddenbrooks .

The brick-Gothic gabled house on the corner of the Kleine Kiesau has been proven to have been a bakery since the 15th century . For reasons of fire protection, such buildings were only allowed to be erected on corner properties in Lübeck. In the 19th century it belonged to the master baker Schabbel , to whom the foundation of the Schabbelhaus in Mengstraße goes back. Today the old bakery is used by the YMCA as a hostel .

Johann Daniel Jacobj grew up as the son of the Lübeck merchant Daniel Jacobi in the Great Petersgrube in Lübeck's old town. He had the house where he was born demolished in 1825 and rebuilt in the classicist style by the Danish architect Joseph Christian Lillie . With the modern house number 19, it is now part of the historic building complex of the music college and is a listed building. Jacobj also set up the cast iron Lübeck lions in front of his house , which today rest in front of the Holsten Gate .

No. 23

The previous building of this house, built in 1730, with its rococo facade fell victim to the Röderschen unrest of August 2, 1727. The protests of the common people were directed against the jurist Joachim Röder (* 1672), who had fled in good time and who was to be arrested for alleged coin manipulation. The house was used as a packing house from 1729 to 1876 and only then used again as a residential building.

The representative classicist building Große Petersgrube 29 takes up almost the entire front of Block 61 towards the Trave, only to the right at the corner of An der Obertrave / Depenau the new concert hall building of the university has been supplemented in modern architecture. This is the location of the Lübeck coin treasure , which was found here during the construction work. The development goes back to the year 1301, when the property was used as a salt house because the boats from the salt pans from Lüneburg and Oldesloe docked here. The building still contains painted wooden beams from the Renaissance period, but is a new building from 1804–1805 by the Danish architect Joseph Christian Lillie. From 1865 the editorial office of the Eisenbahn-Zeitung was located here , the lettering of which could still be read until it was taken over by the music college facing the Trave. Today there is a music academy at this point . The poet Ida Boy-Ed spent her youth in this house.
