The house at Hauptstrasse 1

The house at Hauptstraße 1 (formerly house number 34) is a listed building in the core town of the Lower Franconian community of Volkach . The house was used for a long time as the Gasthaus Zur Lilie (at times also Gasthof Zur Post).

history

The house at the top of the main street was first mentioned in 1605. At that time there was already the Gasthaus Zur Lilie there. In 1635, troops passing through devastated the building in the Thirty Years' War . A host of the “Lilie” was first mentioned by name in 1689, when Jacob Schram was the owner of the “ Schenkstatt Zur Lilie”. A quarter of the building was also held by Michel Wieder. In addition to the actual house, a wine store and vineyards belonged to the property.

Schram or Schramm died in 1698. His heirs received the house with the restaurant and an orphaned fisherman's parlor in the lower suburb . In 1702 Johann Georg Schramm (same last name) married the daughter of the lily landlord. In 1711 Johan Frantz Pfister was the innkeeper in the Zur Lilie restaurant. He was probably still in the house in 1730. The sources are silent about the subsequent change of ownership. In 1771 the previous landlord, Johann Christoph Altenschöpfer, handed over the apartment and guest house to Carl Hacker.

In 1778 Martin Joseph Schwenk is proven as the owner. In 1800 Sebastian Lenzer owned the inn and also ran a rope factory . In 1823 Andreas Leipold Junior is proven in the house, in 1843 he ran the inn, which was equipped with a cellar, a slaughterhouse , a horse stable, a barn, several wine presses , a courtyard and a cattle and pig sty. Leipold later took over the post office in the former official cellar and briefly renamed the restaurant to Gasthof Zur Post.

This name still existed under the following owner Thomas Glock, who is proven in 1897. In 1905 Adam Schrüfer, owner of the Schrüferbräu at Schelfengasse 3, was the landlord. The restaurant now traded again as the "Goldene Lilie". A fire in 1911 also affected the building. In 1915, the convent of St. Maria Monastery acquired the property and later rented the premises to private individuals. The Kiesel family bought the house from the nuns in 1953, in 1984 it came to Lorenz and Käthchen Kiesel, a retail company moved in.

description

The house at Hauptstrasse 1 is a wide, two-storey half - hipped roof house with a gable trapezoid made of plastered half-timbering . The drilled window frames in the Baroque style are partially fascinated. There are arched windows on the ground floor, the entrance to the former restaurant is formed by an arched portal with a separate skylight . When it was converted into a commercial building (probably in the 20th century), granite slabs were installed on the ground floor. A side entrance gate was built in 1911.

For a long time there was a pietà from the 17th century in the gable trapezoid , which was no longer there in 2017.
