Kreuzstrasse 11 (Memmingen)
The house at Kreuzstrasse 11 in the Upper Swabian town of Memmingen in Bavaria is a listed residential and commercial building. It is listed under the monument number D-7-64-000-485.
The three-story house is at the confluence of Kreuzstrasse and Roßmarkt, directly on the Stadtbach . Across the street from Kreuzstrasse is the rear facade of the Kramerzunft . The ground floor is divided into two shop units. The upper floors are divided by modern plaster decorations between the first and second floor. In the rooftop there are three irregularly attached windows.
Next to the house at Kalchstraße 45, it is likely to be the oldest town house in Memmingen. The lower floors probably date from the first half of the 14th century. Dendrochronological examinations showed a time span from 1325 to 1326. Other components of the house date from 1621. Around 1900 the house was heavily changed. In 2013, the owner submitted an application for demolition, which the Bavarian State Office for Monument Preservation rejected: “The existing building at Kreuzstrasse 11 is to be secured and restored in accordance with the preservation standards.” Another application for demolition followed, which was also rejected by the Memmingen city council. On January 21, 2016, the city council approved a request from the new owner to renovate the house.
