Linden market square 2
The house Lindener Marktplatz 2 in Hannover is a Grade II listed multifamily - apartment building with a shop in the ground floor from the time of the German Empire . In 1906, the German- Jewish historian and political philosopher Hannah Arendt was born here. The corner building is located on the Linden market square at the corner of Falkenstrasse in what is now the Linden-Mitte district .
History and description
The building was created in the course of the construction of the Linden market square. During this time after industrialization and the founding period , the industrial town of Linden , which had become independent in 1885, endeavored to build a new city center between the Ihmebrücke am Schwarzen Bären and the church of St. Martin am Lindener Berg . “In an urban development tour de force ” and after some protracted expropriations , the desired, newly laid out rectangular market square was finally created between Villa Stephanus and Falkenstrasse at the level of the old Posthornstrasse . The young city thus "put a clear line under the village past like no other plan". Across from the New Linden Town Hall and the former Imperial Post Office at the bend in the former Dorfstrasse, large-scale apartment buildings were built between 1892 and 1902 , all with shops or restaurants on the ground floors.
While the various architects of the even numbers 4 bis 12 at the facing - brick with neo-Gothic or, as with number 7 , with style elements of Hanover School Of Architecture served, they developed in the form of language to the house numbers 6 and 8 stylistically on. Other architects emulated the traditional representative architecture of the late 19th century with their rich plaster - structure in the neo-renaissance style , such as the houses with the odd numbers 3, 5 and 9 or the corner building at Stephanusstrasse 1 .
The stylistically youngest residential building at Lindener Marktplatz 2, at the corner of Falkenstrasse , stood out from this group of houses not only because of the material used on its facade : the symmetrically constructed house was provided with natural stone templates in the shop area , some of which show fossils . The corner building, richly equipped with bay windows , loggias and balconies, was otherwise plastered with other decorative elements, not all of which have been preserved.
After the era of National Socialism , the Lower Saxony state capital remembered Hannah Arendt with the Hanover city plaque number 129 under the city's coat of arms .
“The German-Jewish historian and political philosopher Hannah Arendt was born here on October 14th, 1906. Before National Socialism she fled Germany in 1933. Her scientific work is dedicated to the origins of total domination and anti-Semitism . She died on December 4th, 1975 in New York . "
In 2014, the artist Patrik Wolters alias BeneR1 produced a graffiti series with motifs from linden trees in the side entrance on Falkenstrasse , but in between there was also a half-length portrait of Hannah Arendt, based on a photograph from the provenance of Käthe Fürst ( Ramat Ha Sharon , Israel ) has been. In addition to the portrait, Wolters brought up one of the most famous quotes attributed to Hannah Arendt.
"Nobody has the right to obey."
