Dog street
The Hundestrasse (Latin for Platea canum in 1263 , Hundestrate in Middle Low German in 1289 ) in the Jakobi Quartier is one of the rib streets in the medieval urban planning of Lübeck's old town.
character
While the upper part of Hundestrasse at the confluence with Königstrasse has long been determined by the former Katharinenkloster , the Hundestrasse in the lower part is characterized by small-scale residential use. The former "poor man's area" has been completely turned over in the last quarter of the 20th century through the urban renewal and is now one of the flagship streets of the area monument World Heritage Lübeck's old quarter, in which now well-paid because of the extensive renovation citizens, but also artists how Karl Gieth and Rolf Goerler settled. The former monastery grounds are now dominated by the neo-Gothic facade of the Katharineum and the brick expressionism of the facade of the city library by Friedrich Wilhelm Virck (1927). The character of Hundestrasse lies in the fact that there are hardly any large shop windows. With the support of the Possehl Foundation and the Lübeck Monument Protection Agency, the front doors of houses No. 12 and No. 35 were extensively restored in the summer of 2010 and given new versions in the correct style (there were no remains of the original findings). Especially the front door of house No. 12, it is exactly opposite the city library, shows the full splendor of the Rococo and is considered a model for the professional restoration of historical doors.
