location
The building ensemble is located in the district and district of Ronsdorf near the city limits of Remscheid . It is located in the residential area of Schenkstrasse in the local area of Kottsiepen on the Kottsiepen stream of the same name and is located in the narrow residential street and dead end Kottsiepen , which can only be reached by car from Schenkstrasse .
History and description
The exact construction date of these two adjacent houses is not known, as no historical sources are available. What is certain is that the location "Kottsiepen" was already called Kottseipere in 1471 and was listed in the Topographia Ducatus Montani by cartographer Erich Philipp Ploennies from 1715 as a settlement with two places to live under the name Korzieben . It cannot be proven whether these were the two semi-detached houses. The buildings are registered in the Prussian original cadastre of 1825 at the latest , which is the first time that there is reliable evidence of their existence. The report by the Lower Monument Authority on this is also concise and can therefore be interpreted. They are among the oldest surviving residential buildings in Ronsdorf.
The two semi-detached houses are built next to each other and symmetrically arranged towards the street front. You have two entrances that are directly next to each other with identical and green painted doors. These are old "Klön- und Kladdertüren" or " Klöntüren ", which used to be mostly built into farmhouses. The upper and lower part can be opened separately. This made it possible to ventilate the upper windowless part and talk to visitors, while the chickens and other small animals roaming freely did not come into the house. Light fell into the kitchen and the smoke from the fireplace could escape. The two-and-a-half-storey houses have a cellar and were built in half-timbered construction, with parts of the facades being slated . The front facing the street traufständigen buildings have a common gable roof . In front of the houses there was a common house well, which was abandoned and filled in in the 1930s after it was connected to the municipal water supply .
Monument protection
Due to the age and the historical significance derived from this for the settlement history of the later town of Ronsdorf, which was incorporated into the newly founded town of Wuppertal in 1929, as well as the characteristic construction in the Bergisch half-timbered style, both buildings were combined as a unit on September 29, 1997 Number entered in the list of monuments of the city of Wuppertal.
