Adamiberg  50 ° 15 '42 "  N , 10 ° 57' 24"  E
In the 14th and 15th centuries the ridge in the west of Coburg was called Mulberg or Kleiner Mühlberg . Johann Andreas Adami bought the hill facing the town in 1741. His son-in-law, Johann Georg Waldsachs, had the area redesigned as the first Coburg community garden in 1774. The name Adamiberg became established , which was retained even after the large property was sold to the city in 1808. Coburg-Adamiberg.jpg
Adamiberg no.
former Schnürsgarten
In the middle of the 19th century, Albert Friedrich Schnür had the community garden laid out by the Adami-Waldsachs families in the second half of the 18th century, remodeled to look like a park. In the complex called Schnürsgarten there are the buildings Adamiberg 1–8 and Adamistraße 2a as well as a memorial stone for Friedrich Schnür. Coburg-Adamiberg-Schnuergedenkstein.jpg
Adamiberg 1
Dreyer's villa
In 1902, the court book printer owner Gustav Besser commissioned the architect and master mason Paul Schaarschmidt on Judenberg to build a four-storey house with a vestibule and winter garden in place of a garden house. The hillside villa with a three-axle balcony porch was acquired by the doctor Karl Dreyer in 1926 and initiated some redesigns. After a roof fire in 1977, the roof was rebuilt as a flat hipped roof without the original gable and roof bay windows. The stairwell, windows, doors and ceilings still exist from the Art Nouveau interior. Coburg-Adamiberg1-1.jpg
Adamiberg 2 The master baker Georg Andreas Fischer had a garden house first mentioned in 1808 at the foot of the Adamiberges enlarged for use as a tavern. In addition to serving beer, which developed into a social garden, Fischer also ran a bowling alley there. Over time, the community garden became a meeting place for citizens dissatisfied with the political situation; from September 1832 to May 1833, the state authorities closed it. In 1848, Fischer had the inn expanded into a residential building. In addition, a wooden transverse building with a hall was built. However, as early as 1851, Fischer disappeared and the property was auctioned. In 1924, the Freemason's lodge for the Franconian lamp acquired the house and arranged for it to be converted and expanded with a wooden arbor into a lodge home. In October 1933, the kindergarten teacher Frieda Böhm bought the building for use as a "private kindergarten". The former inn is a gable roof building with three window axes. The transept has on the ground floor of four Doric columns wooden walls with arched frieze and diamond lattice. The upper floor is characterized by a pitched roof supported by four columns. Coburg-Adamiberg2.jpg
Adamiberg 6
Jean Paul House
The first garden house in the garden on the small Judenberg was built in 1778 for the court trumpeter Johann Georg Waldsachs. In 1803/04 the property served the poet Jean Paul as a refuge during his time in Coburg in 1803/04. This is evidenced by a bust of the poet from 1816 on the facade, made by Hildebrand, a student of Schadow. In 1844 the secret finance councilor Albert Friedrich Schnür bought the garden and around 1870 his brother, the district court director Georg Ottilius Gottfried Schnür, had a new, single-storey garden pavilion built. The half-timbered building has a roughly square floor plan with a large room and three small side rooms. The building is characterized by a tent-shaped roof structure and segmented arched windows with wooden shutters. In the garden there is a memorial stone for Albert Friedrich Schnür from 1867. Around 1889 the property was acquired by the court theater painter Friedrich Lütkemeyer, in 1916 by the Niederfüllbach Foundation and in 1917 by the city of Coburg. Jean-Paul-Haus-CO.jpg
Adamiberg 8
lace pavilion
The Neo-Romanesque garden house was built in 1862 by the secret finance councilor Albert Friedrich Schnür for social purposes by the master mason Paul Gehrlicher. The building was also called Tusculum or Summer Palace. It was acquired by the court theater painter Friedrich Lütkemeyer around 1889, the Niederfüllbach Foundation in 1916 and the city of Coburg in 1917. Since 2004 the building has been used as a meeting place by a Coburg school association. The two-storey pavilion built into the slope is part of the former Schnürsgarten. The basement of the block-like building has diagonally placed corner pillars, which frame three arched arcades on square pillars on three sides. On the upper floor, originally with the large festival room, there are three twin arcades. After an attic cornice with teardrop-shaped blind arcades, a flat tent roof closes off the pavilion. Tusculum Coburg.jpg
Adamiberg 10a The northern passenger station signal box Cn was built around 1920. It was in operation until the end of 2007 and was replaced by an electronic signal box at the freight station. The two-story building has a sandstone base and arched windows on the ground floor. The control room is designed to the tracks through corner bay windows in expressionistic forms. A hipped roof forms the upper end . The electromechanical signal box technology was arranged on the mezzanine floor. Coburg-Bahnhof-Cn.jpg

Adamistrasse

Street description photo
Adamistraße 50 ° 15 '59 "  N , 10 ° 57' 23"  O
Adamistraße begins on Judenberg and ends on Rodacher Straße . It runs east below the Adamiberg along the tracks of the Werra Railway . The predecessor of the four-lane road since 1974 was the Kürengrunder Fahrweg, which was extended to Adamistraße in 1861 to open up new residential areas .
Adamistraße 2a In 1896, the book printer owner and then owner of the Schnürsgarten Gustav Besser commissioned the master builder Otto Leiheis to build the two-storey historicist house. Until the Second World War , the building was used as a toy factory and office building, among other things. The basement was later converted into a restaurant with a beer garden. The facade of the tenement house standing at the foot of the Adamiberges is designed in the neo-renaissance style with bricks and sandstone elements such as corner frames and window frames. The directed to the East Street facade has a central buttress , the top of an ornate Zwerchhaus is completed. At the northeast corner there is a bay tower with a high polygonal dome. The roof construction is a mansard hipped roof, which is penetrated by standing tent dormers. Coburg-Adamistr2a.jpg
Adamistraße 6b In 1904, the master builder Paul Schaarschmidt built the richly decorated Art Nouveau villa on a hillside as his own house with an outbuilding. After the Second World War, the house was partially remodeled and the rear building was separated as house no. 6a. The facade of the hipped roof building usually has a scratched plaster block. The street facade is characterized by a deep three-axis risalit made of roughly hewn sandstone masonry with an elaborately designed ornamental gable. The left side shows an arbor , supported by round arches, the pillars of which end on a veranda. At the back there is a corner tower with a three-tiered roof, similar to a French hood . The crowning of the gable ridge with an owl, an eagle with a banner on the right corner of the risalit and symbols such as hammer, trowel and plumb bob on the left, beehive in the middle and square on the right are related to the builder's occupation as a builder and his membership with the Freemasons. Coburg-Adamistr6b.jpg
Adamistraße 6c / d Paul Schaarschmidt built the double house in 1904 on a plot of land acquired in 1903. He sold the two halves of the house separately in 1919 and 1920. The three-storey building, partly designed in the Heimat style and English architecture, has a base made of roughly hewn stones, on which there is a facade made of exposed brick with sandstone structures and the upper and attic floors made of half-timbered houses . The sides are slated in the upper area. The street front has two-axis corner projections with three-sided oriels. The double house is built in mirror image. The stairwells from the construction period with Art Nouveau parapets are laid out on the sides and open up one apartment on each floor. Coburg-Adamistr6cd.jpg
Adamistrasse 10a The northern signal box Cn was built around 1920 and was in operation until the end of 2007. The two-story building has a sandstone base and arched windows on the ground floor. The control room is designed to the tracks with corner cores in expressionistic forms, the upper end is a hipped roof . The electromechanical signal box technology was set up on the mezzanine floor .

Ahorner Strasse 50 ° 15 ′ 17.1 ″  N , 10 ° 57 ′ 47.2 ″  E
Ahorner Strasse runs parallel to Ketschenanger and Casimirstrasse , under this name since 1873. Until 1875 it led from Ketschendorfer Straße over the Ketschenbrücke to Weichengereuth . The western part was separated in 1905 and expanded into Schillerplatz .
Ahorner Strasse 2 In 1957 the two-storey residential and garage building was built according to plans by the architect Otto Behrens. The building with no basement has nine garages and utility rooms with six cellar compartments on the ground floor. There are six one-room apartments on the upper floor, which have large windows facing the street. External stairs on the side and an external corridor at the rear open up the apartments. A pent roof protruding far to protect the entrances forms the upper end of the house. Coburg-AhornerStr2-1.jpg
Ahorner Strasse 6 In 1905 the carpenter Christian Steinkopf commissioned the master mason Paul Schaarschmidt to build the historicist house. The small villa was built in the style of the English cottage with a plastered facade, partly banded on the ground floor and on the house edges. Two half-timbered bay windows are striking on the street front, on the left in front of a gable a wide box bay under a protruding gable roof and on the right on the adjoining eaves side a smaller polygonal bay window with a helmet. A bar on the underside of the gable bay window bears the inscription “Is nich grot - is man lütt - äwer min Hütt”. The east side of the facade has a tail gable with arched windows. Coburg-Ahornerstr6.jpg
Ahorner Strasse 7 The house was built in 1872 by master bricklayer Bernhard Kleemann on a former Stockmar-Opitz garden plot in the neo-renaissance style. The one and a half storey villa has an approximately square floor plan. The brick facade stands on a half-story house stone base and is characterized by a central, two-axis dwarf gable project made of sandstone, which shows, among other things, leaf motifs on the architraves. Tightly placed consoles under a profiled eaves cornice form the upper horizontal end. Above are dormers with strongly profiled blown gables that penetrate the cross-shaped roof. In 1911, an eaves-standing two-storey half-timbered house with brick infills and a centrally arranged dwarf house was built on the back. Coburg-Ahornerstr7.jpg

Albertsplatz 50 ° 15 ′ 23.9 ″  N , 10 ° 57 ′ 48.5 ″  E
The Albertplatz is west of between the inner and outer walls Ketsch gate . It extends from Ketschengasse to Goethestrasse . In 1395 the square was called Vor dem Ketschentor , from 1432 Czinkenwerd , from 1447 Vischergasse and from 1862 in memory of Prince Consort Albert Albertsplatz . From 1860 to 1862, the square, which had previously consisted of barns and stables in gardens, was rebuilt as part of the demolition of the city fortifications and has since served as a mediator between the city center and Ketschendorfer suburb. In 2010/11 the city had the 2248 square meter square renovated and redesigned for 6.7 million euros.
Albertsplatz 1
Luther Primary School Coburg
The three-storey, three-winged building was built between 1860 and 1862 according to plans by the city councilor Julius Martinet as a neo-Gothic school building with crenellated gables. In 1904 Max Böhme added sandstone stairs to the interior . In the arcade vestibule there is a bust of Luther from 1883, probably by Ernst Rietschel . Coburg-Lutherschule-4.jpg
Albertsplatz 3 The late classicist three-storey town house was probably built around 1870 for the merchant Johann Georg König from a redesign of older predecessor buildings. The facade of the six-axis residential building has flat segmental arched windows on the ground floor. On the second floor, the four middle windows have straight roofs, the two outer windows have curved beams. Cornices are provided to separate floors, with the one between the upper floors having a tooth cut. The eaves are decorated by a rich console frieze. A three-axis dwelling with pilasters between the windows emphasizes the center of the house. Coburg-Albertsplatz3.jpg
Albertsplatz 5 / 5a The multi-part residential building was built in sections between 1874 and 1880 by the confectioner Rudolf Weiß according to plans by the ducal building inspector Hans Rothbart . The building complex follows the course of the former city wall and is closed at the eastern end by a five-storey, crenellated residential tower. To the west is a three-storey eaves side house, the south facade of which has two four-storey, three-axis dwarf projections. House number 5a forms the western end, a two-storey villa with a three-storey gable project in the middle. The house has a small front garden and is set back on the remains of the high medieval castle wall . The same ridge, eaves and storey heights as well as design elements such as crenellations and arched friezes under the eaves unite the individual parts of the building. Coburg-Albertsplatz5a.jpg
Albertsplatz 6 In 1878 the master builder Francke built the two-story house instead of a smaller rear building for the landowner's widow Margaretha Friederike Ludloff, wife of Julius Christian Louis Ludloff . In 1909, the builder Georg Kempf built an extension on the right-hand side for the hotelier Franz Brückner. The building stands set back on a new crown of the city wall, which was dismantled in 1782, and is accessed via a side staircase. The street facade of the four-axis eaves side house has continuous pilaster strips between the windows, which are connected to one another by arched friezes above the windows on the first floor. The extension consists of a staircase with a stepped gable, stained glass and angled canopy. Coburg-Albertsplatz6.jpg
Albertsplatz 7 In 1864, master mason Paul Gehrlicher erected the rear building at Rosengasse 7, probably over the remains of a defensive tower of the inner city fortifications . The apartment building, which has been converted into condominiums since its renovation in 1997, has a neo-Gothic facade with a central, two-axis bay window facing Ernstplatz. Above it stands a group of windows designed as an ogival triple arcade. A stepped gable forms the upper end. On the right there is a two-storey, two-axis extension with a crenellated wreath and a wooden veranda to the side. The single-storey porch on a square base dates from 1953. Under the building there are partly medieval vaulted cellars. Coburg-Albertsplatz7.jpg

Alexandrinenstrasse 50 ° 15 ′ 12.8 "  N , 10 ° 57 ′ 58.4"  E
The Alexandrinenstrasse / Marienberg villa district ensemble is made up of the buildings Alexandrinenstrasse 1–14, Ketschendorfer Strasse 5, 7, 9, 11; Marienberg 1–16, Marienstraße 1–9, Hohe Str. 2, 4 and Glockenberg 6, 6b, 7a bordered.
The Alexandrinenstrasse leads from the upper plant to the Ketschendorfer Strasse . Before 1859 the street was still called Am neue Ketschendorfer Fahrweg or simply Vor dem Ketschentor (see Albertsplatz). In the vernacular, it was based on Seligmann Mannheimer, the first client on the new road, even Mannheimerweg called. The street is named after Duchess Alexandrine , who was married to Duke Ernst II from 1842 to 1893 .
The ensemble at the foot of the Glockenberg consists of three different development zones. On the one hand, there are classifying villas along the southern Alexandrinenstrasse. The northern Alexandrinenstrasse and Marienstraße are characterized by residential buildings in Art Nouveau and historic country style, most of which Carl Otto Leheis designed. The Marienberg is particularly characterized by late historic houses of various shapes.

Alexandrinenstrasse 1 The villa was built by the master builder and architect Otto Leheis in 1903 in the historicizing Art Nouveau style and sold as a tenement house in 1904 to the general agent Heinrich Steinhäuser. Around an eaves, three-storey core building are lower extensions and on the garden side a gable building with a veranda and bay windows. Designed in the country house style, the facade of the lower floors has a scratched plaster block, half-timbered constructions show the northern extension and the gables and branch gables on the upper floor. The stairwell, doors and windows with colored glazing still exist from the construction period. The covered entrance to the rock cellar of the Anton Sturm brewery, built in 1846, is located on the property . Coburg-Alexandrinenstr1.jpg
Alexandrinenstrasse 1 Cellar, with portal, around 1835. See attachment below
Alexandrinenstrasse 2 In 1903 Otto Leheis built the villa in a historicizing Art Nouveau style and sold the house to Sophie Heil in 1905. The building is characterized by architectural forms of the country house style, such as saddle and half-hipped roofs of different heights as well as half-timbering on the upper floors, the gable walls and a partially shingled oriel tower. Art Nouveau elements are mainly found in the window shapes, especially in the side windows of the dormers, and in the interior. Coburg-Alexandrinenstr2.jpg
Alexandrinenstrasse 3 Otto Leheis completed the villa in historicizing Art Nouveau in 1904. When he was insolvent in 1907, Minna Therese Laturner bought the three-story house at a foreclosure auction. The country house architecture, consisting of half-timbered constructions in the facade, such as a wide gable with a hip foot, a three-sided corner bay window and a porch front structure characterizes the property. The right side of the house is marked by a towing roof that extends to the first floor (tailcoat roof) and ends above an arbor supported by an arcade on the ground floor. At the back there is a polygonal stair tower. The half-timbering of the house was originally painted blue. This led to the popular name "the blue monkey". Coburg-Alexandrinenstr3.jpg
Alexandrinenstrasse 4
Sonnenhaus
The splendid Art Nouveau villa by Otto Leheis from 1903 with rich plaster decoration, known as the sun house because of the lavishly decorated sun in the gable , is based on the Belgian Art Nouveau buildings and the Munich architects August Endell and Martin Dülfer with vegetal ornamentation . It is the only pure Art Nouveau building in Coburg. Coburg-Sonnenhaus.jpg
Alexandrinenstrasse 7 The trading concessionist Seligmann Mannheimer, who was sentenced to three years in prison on June 8, 1842 for fraud and embezzlement, had the late classicist house with two rear buildings built on the property of the State Councilor Hoffmann in 1840/41. In 1844, the government councilor Eduard Lotz arranged for an outbuilding to be extended. A veranda was added on the south side in 1880, which was rebuilt several times and increased in 1929 and finally had to give way to a new building in 1984. The cubic, two-storey villa has a flat hipped roof. The seven-axis street facade has flat two-axis risalits on both sides. A horizontal cornice separates the stone ground floor from the plastered upper floor, whose rectangular windows have roofs. Coburg-Alexandrinenstr7.jpg
Alexandrinenstrasse 8 In 1841, Eduard von Löwenfels, son of the Russian Grand Duchess Anna Fjodorovna , ordered the construction of a representative house with outbuildings. From 1902 the Pfitz'sche girls' boarding school was housed in the property and in 1915 it became the property of Wilhelm Liefke, who had a two-storey veranda added. Karl Liefke commissioned the architect Richard Teufel in 1926 with a renovation, which included an extension and an extension. The two-storey, late Classicist villa has a high basement on which the ground floor made of stone and above the plastered upper floor, closed off by a hipped roof, stands. The street facade facing west is characterized by a central gable project with stilted segmental arches on the ground floor, three arcades on the upper floor and a triangular gable at the top. Lintel profiles emphasize the rectangular windows on the ground floor. At the corner of the house with the south side there is a later built polygonal corner bay window. Coburg-Alexandrinenstr8.jpg
Alexandrinenstrasse 11 In 1863, the widow Auguste Stürmer from Berlin had the neo-classical villa with seven heated rooms and four chambers built by Tobias Frommann. In 1864 an outbuilding was built. In 1906 Carl Kleemann extended the attic for the court butcher Ernst Schlick and added a decorative framework to the back. The two-story eaves-standing building is designed in a similar way to the older neighboring buildings (Alexandrinenstrasse 6 and 8). It has a gable roof and upper floor windows with roofs. In the middle of the street front is a flat gable risalit. Coburg-Alexandrinenstr11.jpg
Alexandrinenstrasse 12 In 1874/75, the master builder Hermann Kühn built the house with eleven rooms and four chambers. In 1876 he sold the property to the privateer Ludwig Kalb. The villa, designed in the neo-renaissance style, has a facade with offset corner cuboids on the house edges, a circumferential profiled cornice and a base made of stone. On the north side there is an octagonal tower with a slate hood. On the southwest corner there is an ornamental gable with a richly decorated bay window. The iron garden fence from the construction period and a wooden bridge from 1931 that connects the upper floor with the garden (renewed in 1981) have been preserved. Coburg-Alexandrinenstr12.jpg
Alexandrinenstrasse 13 The two-storey garden house originally belonged to a house built in 1875 for the privateer Carl von Schalepansky with seven heatable rooms and a chamber. The villa served Johann Strauss as an apartment in 1886/87 . While the main building was later demolished for unknown reasons, the associated garden house remained. The hipped roof house with three axes on the eaves was renovated after the Second World War and converted into a residential building. Coburg-Alexandrinenstr13.jpg
Alexandrinenstrasse 14
Villa Löwenherz
The representative house was built in 1903 by Max Frommann in Art Nouveau style. In 1916 he sold the property to the businessman Franz Derichs, and in 1918 the villa was bought by the furniture manufacturer and Wagner friend Richard Löwenherz, who had to sell it in 1936. At the instigation of Löwenherz, the oriel porch bears sculptures with motifs from Wagner's operas Tannhäuser and Lohengrin . Today's apartment building is surrounded by an extensive garden with elaborate walls and balustrades . The street facade shows an embossed base, a richly decorated tail gable, bay windows and arbor. The polygonal tower on the back and the extensions as well as the dwelling on the side are designed in a country house style with half-timbering. A neo-baroque gate with ornamental grille closes the entrance to the garden. Coburg-Alexandrinenstr14.jpg

The small park in front of the former Ernst-Alexandrinen-Volksbad at the end of Löwenstraße towards Itz was created in 1907 as an ornamental garden for the visitors to enjoy after bathing . With the construction of the new bridge over the Itz in 1979, around a third of the park was lost. The rest of the city planning director Hans-Harro's seat redesigned in 1981. In 1985 the facility was named after the mayor of Coburg, Alfred Sauerteig , who saved the city from destruction in 1945.
Alfred sourdough plant no.
Alexandrine Fountain
To the right of the access path to the former Ernst-Alexandrinen-Volksbad is the Alexandrinenbrunnen designed by Max Böhme in 1908 , which commemorates the founder of the Volksbad, Duchess Alexandrine , Coburg regent wife Ernst II . The fountain was originally to the left of the entrance area and was moved to its current location in 1978 when the swimming pool was demolished. Coburg-Alexandrinenbrunnen.jpg
Alfred sourdough plant 1
former Ernst-Alexandrinen-Volksbad
This building, until 1985 Löwenstrasse 30, consists of the former entrance building of the Ernst-Alexandrinen-Volksbad, built in 1907 according to plans by Max Böhme . While the actual swimming pool, including the boiler house, Art Nouveau chimney and all the rooms necessary for bathing, was demolished in 1977 in order to build a new bridge over the Itz , the portico decorated with elaborate Art Nouveau decor was preserved. The double arcade above the entrance bears two stone masks and floral ornamentation by Otto Poertzel , a Coburg sculptor. The bay tower housing the Art Nouveau staircase has been preserved on the left side of the building. The life-size bronze figure of a bathing woman as a gable acrotist, created by Otto Poertzel, has stood on the top of the street-side hipped roof gable since 1907 . Coburg-Volksbad.jpg

avenue

Avenue 50 ° 15 ′ 44.4 "  N , 10 ° 58 ′ 2"  E
The avenue connects the Schlossplatz with Rosenauer Strasse , a continuation of Bahnhofstrasse . It was built in 1803 as a promenade after the moat of the medieval city fortifications was filled in and served the dukes on trips to the castles of Rosenau or Callenberg, among other things. Because of the planting with linden and chestnut trees and because of its partly very shady course, it was also called Black Allee or Dark Allee . Along the way there are numerous historical buildings and on the west side remains of the old crenellated suburban wall and late medieval, neo-Gothic redesigned cellar vaults. Coburg-Burglassbruecke.jpg
avenue In the years 1863/64, the ducal building inspector Jacob Lindner built the neo-Gothic crenellated decorative wall on behalf of Duke Ernst II as a privacy screen from the Hahnmühle's backyard . Coburg-Allee-B.jpg
avenue The former outer city wall of Steinwegvorstadt, which stretched from the Hahntor over the Bürglas Gate to the Stone Gate, was built around 1430. Around 1864, Jacob Lindner and Carl Friedrich Wilhelm Streib designed parts of the wall along the avenue in a neo-Gothic style with a crenellated wreath to create a decorative wall. About ten square meters of the former outer city wall above a cellar on the rear of the property at Oberer Bürglaß 18 are still available. Coburg-Allee-C.jpg
avenue Between 1835 and 1850, the neo-Gothic entrance front to vaulted cellars was built, which are shaped like tunnels and date from the late Middle Ages. The entrance front has six framed pointed arch portals, the side portals are raised. A crenellated crown forms the top. Coburg-Allee-A.jpg
Avenue of the
Buergerlass Bridge
Approximately in the middle of the avenue, the Bürglaßbrücke crosses the path located there in a cut in the terrain. The neo-Gothic bridge, built from sandstone blocks in 1819, replaced a wooden bridge over the city moat and is the direct connection between Steinwegvorstadt and Veste Coburg . Until 1971, the town gate stood on the bridge on the city side. It was demolished because it blocked the passage for buses and fire engines. What remains and has been restored several times is a staircase with a battlement wall from the avenue to the bridge and thus to the Catholic Church of St. Augustin . Coburg-Buerglassbruecke.jpg
Avenue 1 The former forester's house, built between 1854 and 1857 by order of Duke Ernst II, replaced a previous building from 1495. Material from the Catholic Church of St. Augustine, which began in the neighborhood but was not completed due to the marshy soil, was used for the construction. Vincenz Fischer-Birnbaum and his site manager Julius Girtanner were the planners and foremen of the plastered timber-framed building with a dwarf project. Coburg-Allee1.jpg
Avenue 2 The corner residential complex with roof terrace and domed Belvedere was built in 1869 by Vincenz Fischer-Birnbaum and redesigned several times, most recently in 1906 by Georg Kempf in historicizing Art Nouveau. The originally two-storey house, which was built in place of two older buildings, was raised by another storey by Kempf and given a modern look. The street corner was flattened and closed with the Belvedere. The Art Nouveau portal and the staircase stucco and painting from 1907 have also been preserved. In 2008 the building was renovated. Coburg-Allee2-1.jpg
Allee 3
Rosenauschlösschen ,
also Rosenauer Burg
The water castle-like saddle roof construction is located directly on the knight's pond . The massive ground floor dates from 1435. It concerns the remains of the Rosenau Castle , also called Rosenauschlösschen , the mint master Heinz and Günther von Rosenau. The half-timbered upper floor and the attic were built in 1671 instead of originally higher structures. The building, only part of the original castle complex, was used for a time as accommodation for the courtier, the state theater as a backdrop store and the tourists as a reading room. Coburg-Rosenauer-Burg.jpg
Avenue 4a The three-story house built by Carl Wetter in 1907/08 shows cautiously applied historical forms. The frontage of light brick, half-timbered and sandstone bears left side a running over two floors bay tower and on the right a branch pediment on corbels . In 1925, 1965 and 1970 the house received several additions in the side and rear areas. Coburg-Allee4a.jpg
Avenue 5 Built in 1877 by Georg Konrad Rothbart as a boarding school for boys and since 1937 residential building, the building actually consists of three individual houses with a polygonal corner tower that extends over all three floors. The slated mansard roof is interrupted on the slope side of the house by a protruding dwelling. Coburg-Allee5.jpg
Avenue 6 The two-storey, eaves-sided gable roof house with transverse structure, built in 1867 by Christian Lutz with neo-Gothic motifs, was added in 1887 as a photo studio. The east side of the main house is closed off by a two-storey arbor with sawing work. Coburg-Allee6.jpg
Avenue 7 The three-wing, two-storey sandstone block building with a dwarf house projecting on the street side was built in 1860–62 by Carl Friedrich Wilhelm Streib and Julius Girtanner. The first Coburg rural hospital was housed in this building until it was relocated to Ketschendorf and in 1904 the district office moved from the armory to this location. In 1925 apartments were built into the top floor. After 1990 the house served as a residence for emigrants. The originally extensive gardens have been converted into parking spaces. In 2009 the property was acquired by an investor who intends to build around 20 luxuriously furnished apartments with a comprehensive renovation. Coburg-Allee7.jpg

Am Hofbräuhaus 1
Hofbrauhaus
The Hofbrauhaus , built in 1858 as the headquarters of the Coburger Actienbrauerei and continuously supplemented by another 22 buildings until 1937, is the former main building of the Coburger Hofbräu brewery built by Georg Rothbart . The building has been used by the Coburg University of Applied Sciences since 1999, after being gutted after a major fire and restructured inside . Behind the fourteen- axis main building, divided by a central risalit and two external risers, only the malt kiln built in 1895 as well as the old brewhouse and the malt barn from 1868 have been preserved. The buildings at Am Hofbräuhaus 2 and 3 are also located on the former brewery site. The modern demolition of the front terrace dominating the main building in favor of a solo staircase is controversial. Coburg-Hofbrauhaus.jpg
At the Hofbräuhaus 2 The villa, built in 1868 by Wilhelm Streib in neo-Gothic style, stands on an artificial elevation. Each of three changes of ownership (1870, 1875, 1892) involved extensive extensions and renovations, which have given the villa a picturesque appearance today. The original core structure consists of a gable roof house, the long side of which has a two-axis dwarf house with a ground floor and an attic in the middle . During the later changes, which dragged on until 1926, a kitchen extension, two further dwelling houses and a risalit with a stepped gable and a strongly protruding polygonal bay as well as a half-timbered conservatory in front of the entrance area were created. The stable and coach house from 1875 belonging to the villa was demolished in 1999. Coburg-Am-Hofbraeuhaus2.jpg
At the Hofbräuhaus 3 The former master brewer's house of the Hofbrauhaus was built in 1885 and an attic floor was added in 1907. The two-storey administration building has a brick facade with sandstone structures, which stands on a block wall base. Two profile cornices separate the floors. The cuboid hipped roof structure has three axes on two sides of the house and one side projecting each with a strongly emphasized triangular gable. The rectangular, framed windows have window sills on the ground floor supported by brackets and mirror parapets with edge strips on the upper floor. Hofbraucoburg 34.jpg

Former moat between Ernstplatz and the Wall , which was filled in at the beginning of the 19th century and became a narrow park with a pedestrian promenade , which originally ran around the entire old town. Before the city moat was filled in, one of the springs feeding it was turned into a well in 1825 and named after Queen Victoria of Great Britain , who was in Coburg for two weeks at the time, in 1862 . In 1899 the spring dried up and was leveled. The houses, which with their backs at Am Viktoriabrunnen stand on the remains of the medieval city ​​wall, form a picturesque ensemble together with the neighboring Judentor .
