Carl-Cetto-Straße 6, warehouse, 19th century:
The semi-detached house Carl-Cetto-Straße 4–6 consists of two historical buildings that were built in the 18th (No. 4, right, narrow part) and the 19th century (No. 6, left part with archway) and were used as warehouses for a long time. In 1978 the city of St. Wendel bought the semi-detached house. The plan to accommodate parts of the municipal administration here came to nothing because the usable area was too small and the building was instead used for storage purposes. In the meantime threatened with demolition, an extensive renovation of the complex took place from 1992 to 1996 and its conversion to the "Domhotel" with six double and two single rooms, a two-story restaurant, Pilsstube and beer garden in the courtyard. The inside of the building was largely gutted and the roof structure completely renewed, but the historical outer walls and sandstone parts on the window and archways were retained.

Luisenstrasse 2 (part of the building between Fruchtmarkt 3 and Luisenstrasse 17), department store:
The building part represents the southern end of the former Stier department store (from 1992 "Stier Galerie", since 1996 "Dom Galerie"), which was built in two construction phases between 1960 and 1968 and which, among other things , had to give way to the entire historical building stock on the east side of Luisenstrasse between the old town hall ( see individual monument at Am Fruchtmarkt 1 ) and Hospitalstrasse. The department store has been described by the State Monuments Office as "the most problematic new building in St. Wendel's old town after the war". The complex is the main reason why the listed "Ensemble Am Fruchtmarkt / Am Schloßplatz" ends here and is not continued to the "Ensemble Luisenstraße".

location
Paqué brewery , brewery, rock cellar When the Paqué brewery, founded in 1836, ceased production in 1967, the tradition of St. Wendel brewing, which dates back to at least 1570, came to an end. Soon after the opening of his brewery and restaurant in the city center ( see individual monument Kelsweilerstraße 3 ), company founder Michael Paqué had a rock cellar carved deep into the mountain at the foot of the Gudesberg, about 250 meters away, which was intended for fermentation and storage of the beer. The sons of Paqué then erected a new brewery building above the rock cellar in 1884/1885, which was expanded for the first time around 1900 and modernized repeatedly in the following decades. The “Echo” restaurant also belonged to the complex, and its garden restaurant with an attached bowling alley was very popular. The Paqué brewery flourished until the 1950s, when it went into decline. The great-grandson of the company founder sold the family business in 1967 to the Becker brewery in St. Ingbert, which gave up the St. Wendel location. The restaurant remained in operation until around 1980. Since then, the buildings have not been used and are increasingly falling into disrepair. The city of St. Wendel bought the area for other uses in 1981, but repeatedly failed in its efforts to demolish the brewery due to an objection by the state curator. Efforts to find an investor to restore the historic buildings also came to nothing. In the meantime, several parts of the complex that were not listed as monuments were demolished. Of the above-ground parts of the building, the main ground floor of the core building with mighty round arches and a terrace with a balustrade and a corner tower with a flat tent roof are still present. The roof of the sandstone building is missing, the enclosing walls are partially present up to the third floor and poorly supported (as of 2016).

Individual monument in the ensemble Am Fruchtmarkt / Am Schloßplatz
The Catholic parsonage, like the Wendalinus Chapel ( see individual monument Kapellenweg ), was built in the middle of the 18th century by the St. Wendel master mason and stonemason Johannes Schubmehl according to plans by the Augustinian brother Joseph Walter in Trier. The gable, two-story plastered building has three window axes with straight, profiled roofs facing the street. The facade facing the parish garden is dominated by a slightly protruding central projection with a triangular gable. Three of the seven axes lie in the risalits, in the middle axis you can reach the entrance via a flight of stairs. The two outer window axes are designed with segmental arches and an accentuated keystone. The central axes also have a gable field with a straight roof. Corner pilasters decorate the building, an eaves cornice runs through the triangular gable and thus frames a round window in the gable field. The barrel vaulted cellar of the rectory may date from the 17th century. The parish garden to the west of the building is part of the monument. 20160416Am Fruchtmarkt 19 St Wendel1.jpg

The Wendalinus basilica was built in the 14th and 15th centuries. Until 1462, a church nave in late Gothic style with net vaults was attached to the older choir. In front of the nave is a westwork with an elaborately decorated tower substructure and three towers. In the center sits a square central tower with a baroque Welschen dome, to the right and left of it a Gothic side tower with a pointed helmet. StWendelDomRueckseite.jpg

Residential house and factory building

single monument in the ensemble Am Fruchtmarkt / Am Schloßplatz
The core of the three-story residential building is likely to date from the 17th century. This is supported by the cantilevering of the two upper floors over six of the eight closely spaced axes of the ground floor, an echo of medieval building forms that no other secular building in the city has on the facade. In 1827, Emanuel Marschall opened a tobacco mill in the building, from which the tobacco factory named after him developed and existed until 1960. His son Nicola Marschall was born here, who later emigrated to the USA and was recognized there as a painter. Sankt Wendel, Balduinstrasse 3, residential building and factory building.jpg

Residential and commercial building, remains of the cath. Maria Magdalena Chapel

Single monument in the ensemble Am Fruchtmarkt / Am Schloßplatz
The building includes the remains of the Maria Magdalena Chapel, first mentioned in a document in 1318, one of the oldest buildings in the city, in which the remains of St. Wendalinus were buried. The structure of the chapel can still be recognized by the buttresses on the south side and above all by the crypt, which is now used as a wine cellar. The street facade and roof shape, on the other hand, testify to the conversion into a secular building in the late Baroque style, which was carried out after the sale to the city in 1802, which was originally used as a school and mayor's office. After a temporary function as barracks, tax office and municipal library, the building, threatened by decay, was modernized in the 1970s by the architect Hanns Schönecker , which included apartments on the upper floors. The three-story plastered building has seven window axes on the street facade, the middle three of which are separated from the others by pilaster strips. In addition, corner pilasters structure the building, which is rusticated on the ground floor. A cornice separates the first and second floors. Above the entrance portal is a blown gable field with the cornice cranked. The half-hip roof is surmounted by a central ridge turret.

The "Regelbau 117b" bunker was built underground in the eastern area of ​​the Harschberger Hof until 1939. It is united by a tunnel ("connecting structure") with a building of the same type to form a "command post". Its entrance is to the east of the former Bundeswehr building (today "Huffer Farben") on the site and can be seen from the B 269. A "Regelbau 117b" comprised 15 rooms (including for commanders and adjutants, artillery officers, orderlies, intelligence officers, two radio rooms, telephone room, observation room, ready room, business room) and connecting corridors. The Harschberger Hof command post served as the headquarters of the General Command of the XII from October 4, 1939. Army corps of the Wehrmacht under General Walter Schroth and briefly in June 1940 as headquarters of Army High Command 1 under General Erwin von Witzleben . An inspection of the command post, also known as the “Führerbunker”, by Adolf Hitler in May 1940, alleged by the local population, cannot be proven.

Hotel "Posthof" is a

single monument in the Brühlstrasse ensemble
The building of today's hotel "Posthof" was built between 1860 and 1862 by municipal building officer Matthias Mußweiler as a private residence for himself and his family. In 1879 he sold it to the St. Wendel district, which from then on used it as a district office. The name "district house" comes from this time. In 1904 the businessman Josef Bruch bought the property and set up a grocery wholesaler here, which later became the Globus department store group . The entrepreneur Albert Gemm acquired the property in the early 1970s. In the course of lengthy renovations, a rear, modern wing was built by 1975, which accommodated both the rooms of the newly opened Hotel “Posthof” and Gemm's heating and installation operations. Strong demand soon led to an increase in the number of beds and an adaptation of the hotel to today's level of upscale hotel catering. The old building of the hotel is an eaves-standing, two-story stone building with seven window axes. The windows on the ground floor have flat segmental arches, those on the upper floor have a straight lintel. The building is structured on the street side by a central projection that continues into the roof. The triangular gable with gable cornice sits over three floors. Pilasters on the ground floor support a sill cornice on the first floor, which continues into the rest of the building. Further pilasters carry the gable cornice. A gable roof completes the building.

Eisenbahnstrasse
location
Railway depot St. Wendel, engine shed The St. Wendel depot, known as it was from 1935, emerged from a workshop that had been set up at the foot of the Tholeyer mountain when this part of the Rhein-Nahe-Bahn was put into operation in 1860. The authority was responsible for regulating the use and maintenance of the locomotives, and a large number of passenger cars and locomotives were based here. The construction of a circular shed with 21 locomotive booths greatly enhanced the location in 1905/1906. In 1941 the works had 290 employees. War damage to the locomotive shed was repaired by 1952, and a smoke exhaust system was also installed. In 1961, a 23-meter universal joint turntable was installed in front of the locomotive shed. A diesel locomotive was used for the first time in 1956, and all steam locomotives were withdrawn from the plant by 1972. The highest number of 42 locomotives stationed here in 1968 was followed by a steady decline in the importance of the plant, which was closed as a separate department in 1981 and the remaining tasks went to Saarbrücken in 1988. At that time, the plant only had 17 employees, but until recently locomotives were still based in St. Wendel. The locomotive shed also served as an intermediate home for several steam locomotives belonging to a collector until 1985. The site of the former depot is now privately owned; a health center and a supermarket with a parking lot were built here by 2012. From the old systems along the Eisenbahnstraße, in addition to the listed locomotive shed, the attached workshop building, the water tower and, in parts, the coal platform - which has now been built over - have been preserved. The locomotive shed is now without a turntable and sidings, the turntable hole has been filled in. Despite the roof being repaired in 2012/2013, the condition of the building is precarious, and no new use has been found so far (as of 2016).

school The building was erected in 1876/77 as the Kronprinz-Friedrich-Wilhelm-Progymnasium and became a full high school in 1908. After the grammar school had moved, the building became a state college (later a girls' grammar school), but in 1937 the students had to leave the building because the fortress pioneers moved in here to build the Siegfried Line fortifications. In 1940 the schoolgirls were allowed to return. In 1944 the school was closed due to the war, but reopened on October 1, 1945. Since the pupils moved to the new Cusanus grammar school in 1966, the school building was used as a "school for people with learning disabilities", after which it was the seat of the Helene Demuth technical center. The stately sandstone building with two storeys is dominated by a wide central projectile with a stepped gable on the street side. The four window axes on the first and second floors are decorated with roofs and have sill cornices that extend into the rest of the building on the first floor. A tower with a steep tent roof is placed in each of the short sides of the building. Sankt Wendel, Gymnasialstrasse 14, Schule.jpg

St. Wendeler Hospital, boys 'house, hospital chapel from the boys' house The St. Wendeler Hospital goes back to a foundation from 1455, with which a house for the accommodation and care of needy elderly people was created. The duties of Christian welfare were later expanded to include orphans. Secularized since 1800, the foundation expanded its activities again in the 19th and 20th centuries, particularly in the area of ​​raising children and looking after young people with behavioral problems. For this purpose, a large number of buildings were built on Hospitalstrasse and its surroundings, which characterize this part of the city. The Hospital Foundation currently employs around 800 people in the St. Wendel region who continue to work in the field of child, youth and elderly care (as of 2014). Of the historical buildings of the hospital, the chapel from 1865/1866 and the adjoining boys' house, which was formerly used as a children's home, were built in 1882. The latter is a two-storey sandstone building, which is structured by pilaster strips and cornices. Two narrow high windows with flat segmental arches are combined to form an axis. A console cornice decorates the eaves and the gable. The building was used as a music school until 2016. Sankt Wendel, Hospitalstrasse 35-37, boys' house of the hospital with chapel.jpg

Residential building with restaurant, brewery The two-storey building with a stone facade and rear buildings was built in the 19th century. It is controversial whether Michael Paqué converted an existing building he had acquired into a brewery here in 1836 or whether he had the house with restaurant and brewery built himself after 1843. In any case, it became the headquarters of a flourishing company that over the years overtook all the other breweries in the city - there were at least ten around 1850 -. Fermentation and storage of the beer took place in a rock cellar that Paqué had excavated in Gudesberg, about 250 meters away ( see the individual monument on the Echo ). As with most of the city's breweries, the Paqué beer was initially intended primarily for serving as house beer in the adjoining restaurant. In 1884/1885 Paqué's sons had a new building built for the Paqué brewery above the rock cellar on Gudesberg. The house on Kelsweilerstraße remained the company's administrative headquarters until at least 1910. In the population it was known for a long time as "Paqués Wirtschaft" or "Alte Brauerei". Today a restaurant is operated here (as of 2016). Sankt Wendel, Kelsweilerstrasse 3, residential building with restaurant and brewery.jpg

Later the peace tribunal was housed there. In 1835 Carl Cetto (ev. Carl Philipp Cetto ) bought the building. From 1894 the building changed hands several times.

Mission house, monastery church, monastery building When the Steyler missionaries took over the Langenfelderhof (today Wendalinushof) in 1998, they wanted to quickly build a mission house. While young brothers were to be trained as craftsmen and farmers in the courtyard, the mission house was intended for training up to high school graduation in order to attract priestly students. In 1899/1900 the first construction phase was completed with today's gate construction. Further buildings and a monastery church were built by 1914. The south wing was built between 1910 and 1913 based on designs by August Krekeler . In the mission house area, the north wing was expanded in 1955/58. Due to a lack of space, a separate building for a bookshop and museum was built between 1962 and 1964. Between 1971 and 1975 a new boarding school building with a gym and swimming pool was built. Due to the sharp increase in the number of pupils, classrooms were set up there after the boarding school closed. For the same reason, a second gym had to be built in 1987. The V-shaped building complex is cut through by the monastery chapel, which runs in a west-east direction and was built in the neo-Gothic style. The buildings are designed very differently, some with towers, plastered or unplastered in brick, some have a mezzanine floor . Panorama hiking trail St. Wendel 07.jpg

A four-story new building was erected behind the building in 1958/59, and another extension with two conference rooms and a foyer followed in 1963/64. In 1980/81 another three-story extension was built. The windows on the ground floor are designed in segmental arches, the tall, narrow windows on the upper floor in pointed arches. These are combined into two or more windows that are coupled by a pointed arch. A slightly asymmetrical central projection takes up the portal and is closed by a triangular gable with a coat of arms in the gable field. The entrance portal with a round arch and vestments is flanked by two pilasters that carry mighty consoles on which a stone balcony rests. At the northern corner of the building there is a wide protruding risalit with framed corners and a richly decorated triangular gable. In the penultimate window axis in the south sits a polygonal opening with an entrance portal and pointed helmet. Sankt Wendel, Mommstrasse 25, Kreisstaendehaus, Landratsamt.jpg

Fountain The stele of the former fountain in the city park was designed in 1957/1958 by the Hofeld sculptor Wilhelm Knapp. It bears mosaics on both sides, which in a colorful manner show imaginative scenes from fairy tales (hence also "fairy tale fountain") and legends with depictions of children playing and animals from different parts of the world as well as with local motifs (medieval St. Wendel with city wall, Wendalinus with sheep on the chapel dedicated to him). The stele originally stood in the middle of an octagonal well basin; the water gushed at a low height from two pipes on the narrow sides of the stele. The parts of the mosaics close to the ground depict aquatic animals accordingly. After the fountain had already been shut down several years earlier, the dilapidated fountain basin was removed at the end of the 1990s and replaced by a rectangular concrete surface painted only blue. The design of the fountain stele is often erroneously attributed to the St. Wendel artist Mia Münster . The stele and the blue base appear neglected; Parts of the mosaics are disfigured with graffiti (as of 2016). Sankt Wendel, Parkstrasse, Stadtpark, Brunnen.jpg

Hospital church and staff dormitory The modern building was realized 1966–1968 based on designs by Hanns Schönecker . The church, staff dormitory and nurses' retreat of the St. Wendel Hospital ( see individual monument Hospitalstrasse 35–37 ) are integrated into a building complex with - partly overgrown - flat roofs, which sits like terraces on a slope that slopes down to Todtbach. Inside, a stairwell connects the various building levels. The facades of the cube-shaped, towerless part of the church are clad with prefabricated elements made of reinforced concrete into which broken natural stone material is embedded like a mosaic. Inspired by muralism , the ornaments designed by Max Mertz address the four elements. Next to the heavy copper portal by Horst Linn on the left front rises a post on which a large metal cross sits. In the simple, rectangular church interior with a wooden coffered ceiling, the benches for a maximum of 330 worshipers are grouped in a semicircle around the slightly raised altar area. The art objects in the interior of the church, including the choir cross with a forged tree of life and a bronze tabernacle, come from the workshop of the Swiss artist Willi Buck .

Single monument in the ensemble Am Fruchtmarkt / Am Schloßplatz
The building was erected in 1740 by the bailiff of the St. Wendel Office, Franz Ernst d'Hame, as the Electorate of Trier. In the 19th century there were repeated renovations. The free-standing, three-story plastered building has a robust corner cuboid. The arched windows are separated by cornices. On the second floor, the windows are designed as smaller twin windows. The central window axis of the facade facing Schloßplatz takes up the entrance portal and is framed by pilaster strips. A triangular gable sits above the window axis in the gable roof. Next to the north wall is a baroque gate from the middle of the 18th century. The building was the summer residence of the Duchess Luise von Coburg from 1826 to 1831 during the Principality of Lichtenberg . A Coburg coat of arms testifies to this time. A life-size bronze statue of Luise, designed by Kurt Tassotti , has stood on the outside staircase since 2010. In addition, the city of St. Wendel furnished the former living room of the Duchess in 2016 as the “Luise Room” in her memory. Sankt Wendel, Schlossstrasse 7, Kurtrierisches Amtshaus, Rathaus.jpg
