Haus Gartlage is a former manor house in Osnabrück . It is also called Gut Gartlage after the noble estate to which it belonged .

history

The oldest documented mention of the garden location as the property of the Prince Diocese of Osnabrück comes from the year 1190. A stone house is documented for the 14th century , of which only the foundations have been preserved. In the 15th century the von Hake owned. The manor house, which still exists today, was built at the end of the 16th century.

Gut Gartlage changed hands several times until the 17th century. During the Thirty Years' War it was looted and partially burned down by Swedish troops. After 1675 it was sold to the Hildesheim canon Nikolaus Eberhard von Snetlage zu Wulften . He gave it to the Carolinum grammar school in 1683 . The manor house served the Jesuits , who ran the grammar school until 1773, as a recreation center. It was later leased, along with the approximately 54 hectares of land.

In July 1801 a bloody labor dispute broke out around the Gartlage estate: Beginning with the shoemaker journeyman, the city’s journeyman craftsmen went on strike to fight the curtailment of their rights. On July 11th, they moved out of the city in the direction of the Gartlage together with the city residents showing solidarity. In order to end the strike, the military was asked for help. On July 13th, 120 Hanoverian soldiers advanced, their weapons loaded and armed with bayonets . The strikers responded with provocations. When negotiations and attempts at mediation had also failed, the incited soldiers attacked the crowd. The strikers threw objects at the soldiers, and scuffle ensued. Gunshots were eventually fired, killing 10 people and seriously injuring 20. The injured and dead were brought back to the city, where the protests continued peacefully for the next few days. The journeyman's revolt of 1801 is now considered to be one of the most important labor disputes in Osnabrück's history, a plaque on Haster Weg commemorates the event.

A half-timbered house belonging to the estate in the vicinity of the manor house served as a restaurant , and from the 19th century as a coffee house . This included other buildings such as a hall for up to 300 guests. Families could bring their own cake here on Sundays. All the buildings stood in a grove of beech, chestnut, oak and a linden tree, which today is the only one alone in the field, which impresses from a distance. In the open air there was a bowling alley and a few hundred meters into town, meadows were flooded in winter until 1900 for ice skating. A path leads directly from the Gertrudenkloster adjoining the city, which is connected underground to the city , past the place of the restaurant, directly in front of the Gartlage mansion, which measures 13.5 × 29 meters.

During the Second World War , the coffee house was stopped. Shortly before the end of the war, it was damaged by bombs and later demolished.

After the Second World War, the city of Osnabrück took over the maintenance of the high school. In 1974 buildings and properties belonging to the estate fell to the city. The now dilapidated mansion was placed under monument protection around 1980 and sold for 1 DM to a private builder who had it renovated and converted into a residential building with thirteen apartments.

The street on which the mansion is located has been called Gartlager Weg since 1869 . The names of the Carolinger Holz forest area northeast of the manor house and the Gartlage district and the forest area of ​​the same name southwest of it can also be traced back to the estate . The Gartlage house itself, however, belongs to the Dodesheide district .

description

The mansion is a two-story, plastered building made of Piesberg sandstone with a high hipped roof . The outer walls on the ground floor are about one meter thick and some are provided with loopholes . Before the conversion to a residential building, there was a hall on the first floor that encompassed the entire width of the building. Until 1964, in a niche on the south side, there was a statue of St. Christopher from around 1520 , which is attributed to the master of Osnabrück . The mansion and adjoining east yard were originally moats surrounding that were filled before 1800's.
