House Koch & Mayer

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
House Koch & Mayer (1907)
Design by the architects Hermann Maute and Theodor Moosbrugger .

The Koch & Mayer house at Kaiserstraße 29 in Heilbronn was built in 1897 for master builders Hermann Koch and Hermann Mayer based on designs by architects Hermann Maute and Theodor Moosbrugger . The splendid Wilhelminian style building was built on the site of the former tape house of the camera office (birthplace of Gustav von Schmollers ), of which the vaults have been preserved six meters deep in the current building.

The magnificent building was destroyed in the Second World War. Since the post-war period there has been a building built for the Saemann sporting goods store on the site of house 29.

history

Before Kaiserstraße was redesigned into a thoroughfare in 1897, the property at Kaiserstraße 29 had the address Presencegasse 9. When the houses were counted in 1855, it was given house number 881.

Bandhaus (until 1894)

Heilbronn, Kaiserstraße 27-37 (as of 2008)

The band house of the Württemberg Fruchtzehnthof was a three-story, stone transverse building. The band house was on the ground floor, the two upper floors were the fruit floors. The large wine cellar (114 1/4 shoe long, 42 1/2 shoe wide) under the house was considered the “most beautiful cellar” and, according to a contemporary description, was “so high that there are barrels of up to 85 Württemberger buckets in it regardless of what is seldom the case in Heilbronn, despite its depth, it is secured from the penetration of the Neckar water ”.

According to Koppal, the Zehnthof was due to a “strong interest” of King Rudolf and his son Albrecht in the city of Heilbronn as part of the revindication policy. Both visited the city of Heilbronn five times. In 1283 and 1287 Rudolf gave his son Albrecht the tithe in Heilbronn as an imperial fief, one of which was probably a church tithe. 13 years later, Albrecht partially sold his wine tithes. In 1399 a wine tithing farm is occupied. In 1476 the council allowed a wine cellar to be built; Construction work is mentioned in 1477.

After the fruit tithe was drawn in for the last time in 1873, the building was demolished in 1894.

House Koch & Mayer (from 1897)

After the renovation of Kaiserstrasse in 1897, representative buildings were erected on many of the old plots, which rested on the basements of the previous buildings. At Kaiserstraße 29, the Wilhelminian-style residential and commercial building was built in 1897 for the construction company Koch and Mayer based on designs by the architects Hermann Maute and Theodor Moosbrugger. The construction company Koch & Mayer GmbH played a key role in the restructuring of the Bad Friedrichshall salt mine into the Kochendorf concentration camp in 1944.

Destruction in 1944 and rebuilding in 1950

The magnificent building was destroyed in the air raids on Heilbronn on December 4, 1944. Reconstruction began on May 13, 1949. In 1964 the post-war building was completed.

Leather and saddlery Saemann (from 1919)

Since 1919 the shop of the merchant Wilhelm Saemann was located in the building, which sold leather and saddlery. Saemann had previously opened a shop on Kirchbrunnenstrasse in 1898. After Wilhelm died in an accident in 1910, Lina Saemann, his widow, took over the business and in 1919 moved the business to Kaiserstraße 29. In 1927 the range was expanded to include sporting goods and sportswear.

The address book from 1931 shows that the house in Kaiserstr. 29 belonged to the widow Lina Saemann (also e.g. in 1925).

Max & Siegmund Lang furniture and bed shop (1906–1934)

From 1906 to 1934, the following Jewish shops are mentioned at Kaiserstraße 29: Max Lang, furniture dealer and Max & Siegmund Lang furniture and bed shop.

According to the emigration list, Siegmund Lang (born February 9, 1906 in Heilbronn) lived in 1939 - until his emigration to the USA on February 20, 1939 - at Kaiserstrasse 29. Max Lang (born June 8, 1871 in Georgsgemünd) immigrated together with Lina Lang, née Strauss (born September 11, 1865 in Grombach) in October 1939 - living at Mönchseestrasse 71 at the time of emigration - to the USA.

Stationery wholesaler C. Josef Müller (until 1944)

Until 1944 the stationery wholesaler C. Josef Müller was located in the house. The business was founded by the businessman Carl Mollenkopf (born March 19, 1910, † August 11, 1995), who with Luise Mollenkopf born. Seckel (born January 17, 1916; † May 24, 2008) was married.

Architecture and art

The building at Kaiserstraße 29 was part of a group of representative buildings extending from house numbers 25 to 37, which made Kaiserstraße in Heilbronn a “boulevard of the Wilhelminian era”: “Nowhere was Heilbronn more urban”.

  8. a b “The construction time of the band house is unknown. According to a description from 1807, the building was a stone transverse structure that closed off the Fruchtzehnthof to the east. The situation of the band house can also be seen in the site plan of the Fruchtzehnthof made at the same time [...] Under the building there was a vaulted cellar, which the description from 1808 praised as follows: '[…] under this building was a vaulted cellar owned by the city of Heilbronn . Its length is 114 1/4 shoe in diameter and 42 1/2 shoe in width; it is so high that there are barrels of up to 85 Wuerttemberg buckets in it, and regardless of what is seldom the case in Heilbronn, despite its depth, it is protected from the penetration of the Neckar water. ' After the Fruchtzehnthof was raised in real terms for the last time in 1873, the functionless barn was broken off in 1894. ”(from: Marianne Dumitrache, Simon M.

  9. ^ “On September 9, 1281 Rudolf von Habsburg granted Heilbronn the same rights as the city of Speyer had. For the year 1283 we are told that he gave his illegitimate son Albrecht von Schenkenberg the tithe in Heilbronn as an imperial fief. In 1287 Albrecht [...] received his tithe in Heilbronn [...] The award of two tithe [...] already suggests that one of them was a church tithe. Confirmation of this is obtained through the notification of the citizens of Heilbronn by Rudolf that he had transferred his tithe to his son Albrecht in Heilbronn and in the parish there [...] [...] this message falls in the year 1288 [...] The position of the royal family in the Heilbronn area is then further strengthened by the fact that Rudolf probably collects the Heilbronn tithes in the course of his revindication policy, which previously belonged to the Dürners [...] Whatever the legal reason for the collection of the tithe may have given, Rudolf used it to the Reich and to create a stronger position for his family in the Heilbronn area [...] It is the expression and consequence of an extraordinarily strong interest of King Rudolf and Albrecht in the city of Heilbronn. To illustrate this interest, it should be pointed out that the father stayed in Heilbronn at least five times, the son just as often […] ”(from: Klaus Koppal: On the problems of Heilbronn city history research.
