The Kannengießer street in the city of Braunschweig connects the north to road Butt brothers with the adjacent to the southwest Schützenstraße . The street, which was formerly characterized by half - timbered houses and built on both sides, lost its original character due to the destruction during the Second World War and subsequent redesigns.
history

The Kannengießerstraße belonged west to the former house no. 142 to the softening of the old town and on the longer east side to the sack . The name Sackstrate has been handed down from 1333 . A passage leading to the neighboring monastery is known as valva fratrum minorum in 1308 and as the barvoten brodher dor in 1334 . The houses next to the passage were described in 1339 with the addition unde hebbet de hove to den brodern kekart and in 1358 as by der brodern dore up der sackstrate . In the Middle Ages, jug foundries , bell and gun foundries lived in the street , and they also ran their workshops here. Godeke de kannengheter lived in Sackstrate as early as 1346 . For the year 1416 Hans and Luder Gropengheter and Tyle Kannengheter are documented. The name Kannengheterstrate first appeared in 1402, although the old name Sackstrate remained in use for a long time. Until 1541, only the old street name was used in the sack's lap books .
A curiosity is an advertisement that appeared in the Braunschweigische advertisements on July 3, 1819 , in which "A running machine that is still as good as new, for a cheap price, on Kannengießerstraße i [m] H [aus] 2707" is offered has been. Such a walking machine had only been presented to the public by the inventor Karl Drais two years earlier and was a rarity in 1819.
During the Second World War, the half-timbered buildings on Kannengießerstraße were completely destroyed. Heavy air strikes took place on September 9, and particularly on October 15, 1944 . The road layout was changed after the war. While it used to connect Schützenstraße with the sign almost in a straight line , today, coming from Schützenstraße, it runs at an angle that bends north to the street Hintern Brüdern .
Historic buildings
Gun and bell founders lived in house no. 2696 since the end of the 14th century, including the master Bertold von Melverode, verifiably in 1408. The foundry Henning Bussenschutte is documented for the house with later no Proof of the owner who cast the Braunschweiger Faule Mette giant gun in 1411 . The Mente foundry family, whose most famous members are Hinrik Mente and his son Cord Mente , lived in the house from around 1460 to 1600 . Hinrik Mente moved into a new house on Echternstrasse in 1512 . The family property in Kannengießerstraße (house no. 2696) fell to Hinrik Mentes' half-brother, the bronze caster Ulrich Mente (around 1495–1543) from his father's second marriage. Ulrich Mente had the house rebuilt. In 1609 it came into the possession of the Brothers Church community. Between 1644 and 1747 it was owned by Martin Sommeraus and his heirs. In 1850 it was bought by Heinrich Georg Wilhelm Theodor Löhr.
The house where Hermann Bräss (1738–1797), the son of a master button maker, was born was located at number 17 . After attending school at the Katharineum , he studied theology, worked as a Protestant pastor and from 1786 published the Rote Zeitung , which was printed in Wolfenbüttel .
The Lutheran theologian Ludwig Ernesti (1814–1880) was born on Kannengießerstrasse , where his father ran a liquor bar.
The renaissance gate that closed the cemetery of the Brothers Church to Kannengießerstrasse was demolished in 1757.
As a result of the hunger years from 1845 to 1847, the social reformer Luise Löbbecke, together with her aunt Amalie Löbbecke and other women in Kannengießerstraße, founded a “dining establishment for the needy ”. On April 10, 1867, Wilhelm Graff opened a bookshop with an antiquarian bookshop on Kannengießerstraße, which still exists today in a different location. The nationally known animal photographer Hermann Fischer († 1975) was born in house No. 27 in 1885 .
Today's development
Today only the south and east side of Kannengießerstraße are built on. After the end of the war, three-story houses were built, while a parking lot was created on the north side.
