history
The multi-storey building was built in 1898 as a hotel at Wilhelmstrasse 58, designed by August Dederer for the master carpenter Friedrich Hubmann, who in 1894 not far from the Uhlandstrasse the house Hubmann had built. The ground floor provided space for a restaurant, café, buffet and billiard room as well as the hotel's entrance hall. Twelve hotel rooms with bathrooms were housed on each of the upper floors. The stairs in the building were designed by the blacksmith August Stotz .
In the early 1930s, Heinrich and Emilie Hiller's Viktoria coffee restaurant was located in the building . At that time, the building was owned by the association's printing company (which published the Neckar-Echo, which is close to the SPD ), was then expropriated by the National Socialists and from 1934 onwards was continued by a different host. In 1950 the building was still owned by the club's printing house. Ernst Esch ran the Zum Palmbräu restaurant on the ground floor and first floor , and many apartments were rented out. In 1956 the house was rebuilt. In 1961 it belonged to the pension fund of the German consumer cooperative. The Palmbräu restaurant was now run by Klemens Rau.
