The house at Rampische Strasse 4 in Dresden was designed in the 18th century by Andreas Adam and his son Samuel Adam. It was located in Dresden's old town at the transition from Neumarkt to Rampische Straße leading out of town . It was destroyed in the bombing of Dresden in 1945.

The site is being rebuilt as part of the Hoym district , which was built by the CG Group by 2022, and whose lead building will be the reconstructed Hoym Palace .

history

A painting by Bernardo Bellotto from 1748 shows a three-axis and five-storey building at this point, but at that time there was an oriel on the central axis. Later came the same place a new building, probably before 1760. According Hertzig the house burned during the Seven Years' War in the Prussian bombardment in July 1760 and was subsequently restored.

Building description

Four upper floors rose above the ground floor. The facade was three window axes long. The building was closed with a mansard roof with three simple dormers with triangular gables . The facade was framed on the sides by pilaster strips that were stepped towards the sides. The “motif of the upturned floor cornice ” can be found in both Rampische Strasse 4 and Adamsche Haus , which is why Stefan Hertzig has adopted Andreas Adam or his son as the design architect. Johann Christian Hasche describes that the building has "a noble reputation".
