Workers houses

The Langer Jammer is under monument protection standing row of houses in the district right bank of the Weser in the East Westphalian town of Minden in North Rhine-Westphalia .

history

The row of 10 houses was built between 1897 and 1899 by the building contractor Friedrich Lax on Friedrich-Wilhelm-Straße between the railway and the street. Above all, workers from the so-called coal bank should be accommodated here. Each of the two-story houses has two apartments . The upper apartment can be reached via a steep staircase and has its own entrance door. In 1912 the houses were sold to the Renke family. Baths were retrofitted after the Second World War. The houses were listed as a historical monument in 1991. It is not known how the popularly formed term “long woe” comes about.
