history

The Franconian royal court was once located in the western area of ​​Heilbronn's old town. The Franconian royal property was already fragmented by the high Middle Ages. At the place of the royal court there was later the Katharinenspital as well as the Johanneskapelle, which went back to the royal court . The churchyard near St. Johann belonging to the hospital was in the northern half of what would later become the property at Kaiserstraße 5 and was abandoned at the time of the Reformation. Also still on the property was a house of the hospital, which was rebuilt in 1529 to the Elendenherberge and replaced in 1549 by a new building mentioned in 1685, which was used as a poor or orphanage. Around 1800 the social conditions changed, u. a. through the construction of the new orphanage, breeding and workhouse and through the construction of a new hospital in Paulinenstrasse. The Johanniskapelle had already been removed in 1836, at that time the Gasthof zum Hirsch was located in its place . The hospital was sold for demolition in 1862. A significant urban development change occurred in the late 19th century when the new Neckar Bridge was built and the former Kramstraße was expanded to become the continuous Kaiserstraße in its current course by 1897. The building at Kaiserstraße 5 was thus on the city's new main traffic axis. At that time, many of the old buildings along the street were replaced by representative new buildings in the style of the time.

In 1901/02 the businessman Otto Kleinlogel had a building erected at Kaiserstraße 5 based on designs by the Heilbronn architect August Dederer (1858–1903). Kleinlogel is listed in the yearbook of millionaires in Württemberg with Hohenzollern from 1914 among the simple millionaires with a fortune of one to two million marks. Architect Dederer drew in Heilbronn a. a. also responsible for the buildings in Herbststrasse 8 , Silcherplatz 6 , Uhlandstrasse 70 and Wilhelmstrasse 52 , 54 , 56 and 58 .

The shop window facade of the Kleinlogel house was created by the blacksmith August Stotz. The facade painting was done by Ernst Bader, who also artistically designed the Käthchenhaus , the hall of the Cluss brewery and various villas in Heilbronn.

After the building was destroyed in the air raid on Heilbronn on December 4, 1944, the owner Kleinlogel first opened a shop in a provisionally restored building at 19 Klarastraße / corner of Wollhausstraße and in 1955 left a six-storey residential and commercial building on the old square according to plans by Architects Kurt Marohn, in which the photographer Alfred Naleppa, who was bombed out in the Rauchschen Palais in 1944, opened a photo shop on January 2, 1956, before Kleinlogel moved into it again a little later. Today's building, planned by Marohn, is a five-storey building with a flat roof that is directly connected to the HypoVereinsbank building (Kaiserstrasse 1–3).
