Gartenstrasse 50 ° 15 ′ 57.3 ″ N , 10 ° 57 ′ 48.2 ″ E |
Gartenstrasse lies in the confluence triangle of Lauter and Itz in the area of Heilig-Kreuz-Vorstadt . It leads from the Heiligkreuzbrücke to the Lauter and at a right angle to the Kasernenstrasse , the last part being a footpath. Originally the front part up to the Lauter belonged to Brückenstraße . | |
Gartenstrasse 1 | In 1902 , Paul Schaarschmidt built a tenement house with four apartments for the businessman Hermann Schmidt on the corner of Blumenstrasse as the first house in Gartenstrasse, which was formerly known as Brückenstrasse . In 1919, a shop with a small outside staircase was built into the house in the triangle of the Lauter and Itz estuary. The four-storey building is dominated by dwarf projections on both street fronts. A console bay window decorated in a neo-Gothic style over two floors is integrated into the garden street front. A corner buttress, large cross-frame windows and a Welsche hood emphasize the corner towards the intersection. The north and east sides of the house are one storey lower than the corner, which visually catches a crooked roof . A staircase with preserved turned balusters opens up the house on the left. | |
Gartenstrasse 3 | Bricks with sandstone structures characterize the two-storey apartment building, which Martin Renner built as a rental house in 1895 and replaced a garden house from 1868. The garden includes a built as a two-storey timber-framed building in 1896 Stonecutting received. As a house type common in Coburg from the Wilhelminian era, this house is also adorned with a dwarf project on the street side. To the side of this there are two standing dormers , which also include the top floor outside in the living area. | |
Gartenstrasse 4 | Andreas Immler built this partly plastered half-timbered house in 1888. Eduard Grams added a veranda in 1909 for the later owner Andreas Rauschert. The front of the house facing the Itz contains an open half-timbered dwelling. The four-axis gable side facing the Lauter is completely slated against moisture on the upper and attic floors. At the back there is a dwelling with a crooked hip. |
Vegetable market

Vegetable market 50 ° 15 ′ 38.2 ″ N , 10 ° 57 ′ 57.6 ″ E |
The area of the vegetable market had belonged to the Georgenspital as a farmyard since 1868. After its demolition and the uncovering of the backyards, only the central hospital courtyard fountain was initially preserved. The space created in this way between the back buildings of the Upper and Lower Burglass and Steinweg was used as a vegetable market until the end of the Second World War . The former Spitalhofbrunnen, which had been transformed into a vegetable market fountain, finally disappeared in 1969 when the square was redesigned, creating a passage to Georgengasse and Theaterplatz . | |
Vegetable market | For a boundary stone, see Theaterplatz | |
Vegetable market 1 | The three-storey residential and commercial building with a hipped roof was built by Herrmann Kühn in 1869 using the door frames of the previous Georgenspital building from 1737 after it was demolished. The space created by the clearing of the backyards at Steinweg 2-8 was used as a vegetable market until the end of the Second World War, where the former Spitalhofbrunnen, which was transformed into a vegetable market well, stood until 1969. The greengrocers, who came mainly from Bamberg and were called onion treads in the Coburg vernacular , had the landlord on the ground floor of the house call his restaurant Zur Stadt Bamberg since 1887 . The side borders of the front facing the square form two single-axis risalits with wide windows. A strong cornice sets off the ground floor. The portal is offset to the left and shows the figurative representation of the fight of Saint George with the dragon, the Coburg Mohr and the Meissen lions . In 1892, the restaurant had the workshop of the print shop owner Hermann soft Wechsung and 1930. Friedrich Colbatzky, the owner left the printing house of Coburg Tageblatt of Paul Schaarschmidt remove the two upper floors and the attic as apartments and set up a Dormer. |
Gerbergasse
Street | description | photo |
---|---|---|
Gerbergasse 50 ° 15 ′ 45.3 ″ N , 10 ° 57 ′ 56.2 ″ E |
It was first mentioned as Gerbersgraben in 1462. The current name has been documented since 1474. In 1658 there were thirty tanners living there, all of whose houses were on the Hahn River, which is now piped up. | |
Gerbergasse 1 Gerberhof |
This residential and commercial building on the formerly open, now piped Hahn River has its origins in the small wicker house built in 1727 , which burned down after renovations in 1880 and was rebuilt in 1881 by Andreas Immler. At the same time, Hermann Kühn built a residential and commercial building with a corner shop at Steinweg 53 , which initially housed a bakery and then a butcher's shop. In 1988 both houses were combined into one unit under the name Gerbergasse 1 and became the Hotel Gerberhof , with the original apartments in the Gerbergasse building being converted into eight guest rooms and a restaurant. The basement of the Steinweg building was expanded in 1992 as a garage for guests. Both buildings were built in the neo-classical style, most easily recognizable by the stone path front with its series of arched windows and doors, the strip cornice that separates the ground floor from the upper floors and the double windows with lintel profiles on the first floor. | |
Gerbergasse 6 | In 1499 there was a craftsman's house for weavers and red tanners, in 1730 Johann Barthel Plappert's gingerbread shop with two floors and one room . Several extensions and conversions changed the property around 1900; In 1919, the expansion of the attic and the installation of two three-axis dwarf houses by master builder Carl Wetter were characteristic. In 1986, all the rear buildings except for an extension to the main building had to give way to the new Post car park . A two-story plastered half-timbered superstructure with seven window axes rests on the massive ground floor with a central portal. Two flat pilasters set with cartridges frame the central window. The twelve-year-old Albert Lortzing lived in this house with his parents in 1813. A plaque installed above the portal in 1898 reminds of this. | |
Gerbergasse 7 Black House |
The tanner's house from 1700, which was built by Nicol Schwarz in place of a previous building from 1499, was transformed in 1920 into a three-storey side eaves building with a mansard roof and a dwarf house. Christian Renner, who carried out the renovation, created a residential and commercial building for the merchant Emil Herr, which no longer reminds of the former tanner's house with open ventilation dormers due to the conversion of the saddle roof to an inhabited mansard roof. After the Hahn River had been piped up in 1967, a shop with shop windows was installed in the front building in 1976/77. The second floor of the house with a five-axis facade and a pair of side windows juts out slightly over the formerly open river. The facade decoration with corner pilasters dates from 1920. | |

Glockenberg
Street | description | photo |
---|---|---|
Glockenberg 50 ° 15 ′ 16.5 ″ N , 10 ° 58 ′ 18.4 ″ E |
The street name Glockenberg derives from the former ducal bell foundry Glockenberg 7, which was established here in 1588 by Duke Johann Casimir. It was in operation until the middle of the 19th century. The ducal riding school from the 16th century was located on the western Glockenberg. It was closed in the middle of the 19th century. Its walling partially forms the base of the double Glockenberg 3/4 and 5 / 5a properties. | |
Glockenberg 2 | The court blacksmith's shop at the ducal riding arena stood there until the middle of the 19th century, suspected as early as 1588 and backed by a preserved annual stone with horseshoes in 1773. In 1834 the court forge was rebuilt and, after the riding school was closed, it was used as a residential building until 1872. In 1876, Julius von Wangenheim had the unused house torn down and a rental apartment building built, which has been preserved to this day with minor changes. Above the front door there is a memorial plaque for Wilhelmine Schröder-Devrient , who was considered the greatest dramatic singer in the German-speaking area. She died in this house on January 26th, 1860 while visiting her sister. The table was donated by her colleague and admirer, the tenor Joseph Tichatschek . The two-storey ten-axle hipped roof house is characterized by a central dwarf house and four standing dormers. The upper floor is complete, half of the ground floor is half-timbered. Chimneys from the time of construction protrude from the roof. Inside the house, the old hall doors and a decorative floor have been preserved. | |
Glockenberg 2a | Samuel Jacobi, a merchant in Coburg in 1881 and with his farm building on Glockenberg , applied for the relocation of his trading office to Eckardtsberg and the conversion of the previous house into a residential building including ancillary buildings. Carl Grams carried out the work and created a two-story saddle roof building with a gable in the middle from the previously single-storey building. The street and gable sides are adorned with decorative gables with rose ornaments and two oculi . In 1905 Karl Bärmann added a drying floor to the outbuilding. | |
Glockenberg 3/4 | In 1859, the ducal domain administration had Georg Konrad Rothbart build a two-storey double tenement house with a hipped roof on the property, which bordered the ducal riding arena until it was closed and was separated from it by a strong retaining wall . Part of the walling of the former riding arena was preserved and was included in the basement of the building. In 1920 the house was briefly owned by the Bavarian State and Forestry Office. In 1991/92 the house entrances were given canopies. 1990–1995 the installation of two dormers and one attic apartment and in 2004 six more dormers. The building with seven window axes is dominated by two stairwells protruding around a window axis with flat hipped roofs. The upper floor is emphasized by higher windows. The façade facing the upper structure is structured by two gable projections with turrets. The upper floor is adorned by a console bay window over short services , a tracery parapet and a battlement with a small arbor . | |
Glockenberg 5 | The two-storey stump of a round tower from the 16th century stands on the remainder of the site of the former ducal riding school. In 1842 State Councilor Hess received the ducal order to build a house on the property within two years. Initially, a neo-Gothic two-wing complex was built, in the south front of which the tower stump was integrated as an oriel porch with a slate pointed helmet. In 1860 the house was expanded by adding a northern wing. Since 1937 at the latest, the house has been owned by the Evangelical Lutheran General Church Community. The corners of the representative complex with its unplastered front to the upper complex , from where it is connected, are emphasized by indicated corner projections with corner balconies. The second floor, interrupted by a central projectile with a group of double windows, is characterized by neo-Gothic pointed arched windows. In the course of renovations inside and outside the house, which Georg Kempf carried out, it was given garages with segmented entrances on Marienstraße in 1938. Jacob Lindner opened up the hillside property in 1859 with a stairway, the Sturm staircase to the eponymous Sturm'schen beer garden . In 2001 dormer windows were installed and the attic was converted into an apartment. | |
Glockenberg 6 | In 1876 the ducal domain administration took over the relatively unadorned three-wing complex from the owner, government attorney Christian Brenner, who had bought it in 1747 from the builder, the painter Andreas Eusebius Berold. The elongated west facade of the three-storey main building, to which two wing structures adjoin at the rear, has 15 window axes on the upper storeys. One of the few remains from the early 19th century is the classicist framing of the entrance door with straight lintel beams. Since the conversion to a seminar practice school for teachers at the Albertinum in 1920 , the building has been constantly changed. In 1924 it belonged to the Marienhausstiftung Teachers' Institute , and in 1937 it came to the Red Cross . From 1947 the infirm were housed there and in 1958 the previous large apartments were converted into smaller residential units and the connection to the neighboring new Protestant community center on Untere Realschulstrasse was completed. | |
Glockenberg 6a formerly Sturm'scher beer garden |
Otto Leheis built the villa in the historicizing Art Nouveau style in 1902 on the site of the former Sturm'schen beer garden , which had been re-parceled out for home construction. In 1909, the master potter Ferdinand Bätz bought the villa with its facade facing Marienstraße . The building gets its picturesque appearance from the pointed roof areas, bay windows, clapboard cladding, half-timbering and two polygonal bay windows on the street-side gable front. The framework with diamond-shaped divided fields is modeled on Baroque Franconian models. A corner veranda on wooden supports is embedded in the roof. The entrance area with a grooved door frame in sandstone is located under a shingled hipped roof superstructure that merges into the large roof area of the also shingled superstructure. A rounded bay window with a gable roof decorates the ground floor on the right side of the house. | |
Glockenberg 7 former bell foundry, forest and domain office |
The Bavarian Forest and Domain Office in Coburg, which has had its seat in the neo-Gothic saddle roof building built by Julius Martinet in 1879/80 since 1928 , is the successor to the ducal domain administration. In 1874 the company acquired the building of the former ducal bell foundry from 1619, which gave its name to the corridor and the street. The foundry went into private ownership in 1833 and was shut down in 1855, whereupon the ducal building officer Vincenz Fischer-Birnbaum acquired the building and let it be used as a residential building for 20 years. In 1879, the domain administration ordered the building to be demolished and rebuilt by Julius Martinet on an L-shaped floor plan. With the exception of the missing tower, the house has all the staffages of Coburg neo-Gothic. The corners of the two-storey main wing above a basement have polygonal towers attached to the roof edge. The eaves side is accentuated by a diaphragm project, from which a two-axis box oriel protrudes on consoles on the second floor. The portal on the right-hand side of the entrance is covered by a four-column baluster altane, the axis of which continues upwards in three tracery windows and a gable with a small staircase, thus taking up motifs from the late medieval town hall building in a simplified form. A polygonal box oriel protrudes from the left gable front on the second floor. The secondary wing, which continues the elements of the main wing, joins the main wing at an angle. | |
Glockenberg 7a | Like Haus Glockenberg 6a , this villa, built by Otto Leheis in 1902, is located on the site of the former Sturm'schen beer garden . The single-storey house with a high hipped roof and historicizing decor was given a veranda on the street side in 1910 under the existing curved dwelling, the upper triple window of which extends into the attic, which was expanded in 1994/95 for residential purposes. On the garden side there is a staircase risalit with a gable roof, while the next side is characterized by a wide risalit with a triple protruding diaphragm and a flat console bay window. The windows and doors of the house are surrounded by curly frames. In the garden there is a stone lantern with open arches, from around 1910. | |
Glockenberg 8 | This rental villa with a neo-Gothic crenellated tower was built by Hans Rothbart in 1872 for tax councilor Rudolph Othberg. In 1873 a stable building was added behind the house and in 1879 a glass and iron greenhouse next to it, which was removed again in 1936. Bricks with sandstone inclusions characterize the appearance of the house, which stands on a high ashlar base. With its two gable roof wings and a strongly projecting dwarf house projection on the street and garden side, it corresponds to the villa type common in Coburg of this time, whereby the street projection is additionally emphasized by a three-sided oriel with arbor and tracery parapet. A wooden vestibule, the glazing of which has been preserved from the original period, protects the entrance next to the gable front. |
Goethestrasse
Street | description | photo |
---|---|---|
Goethestrasse 50 ° 15 ′ 19.4 ″ N , 10 ° 57 ′ 45.4 ″ E |
The street leading south from Ernstplatz to Anger was previously called Angerstrasse . It was part of the Lower Plant , the northern section of which is today's Viktoriastraße. On the occasion of Goethe's 200th birthday in 1949, Angerstrasse was given its current name. | |
Goethestrasse 1 | The property at the Zinkenwehr / Goethestrasse intersection (formerly Fischersgasse ) has been built on since 1424. A residential building has stood there since 1865, designed and built by the court building officer Carl Friedrich Wilhelm Streib for the master joiner Johann Carl Sigmund Krämer. Neo-Gothic forms determine the exterior of the gable roof construction through six window axes, which are designed as segmented arched windows on the ground floor and rectangular windows on the upper and attic floors. The house is fully verschiefert, including the input Zwerchhausrisalits on the eaves side, the opposite three lancet windows on the upper floor and a balcony on cleats identifies. The city has owned the house since 1903 and had it rebuilt several times, eventually turning it into an apartment building. | |
Goethestrasse 5 | The stately, neo-Gothic, two-storey gable-roof corner house at the Goethestrasse / Zinkenwehr intersection was built by Bernhard Felber in 1870. In large parts it is similar to the somewhat older house No. 11. The shorter facade on Goethestrasse is divided in the middle by one, the longer facade on the Zinken weir by two dwarf projections. The corner of the house is sloping and covered by a round bay window with arbor. A dwarf house with a flat stepped gable crowns the corner. The original slate roof was replaced by a tile covering in 1972. The entrance to the house, protected by an iron and glass porch, is on Goethestrasse . In 2010 the building was renovated and again fitted with a slate roof. | |
Goethestrasse 7 | In 1869, one year before the neighboring house No. 5, Bernhard Felber also built the two-storey neo-Gothic eaves-facing house with a gable roof. The facade structure originally corresponded to that of house no. 5, but lost its symmetry, which was based on the central dwarf projection, when it was extended by a double window axis in 1899. All windows on the street front are drawn together in pairs by segment or blind arches and adorned in the risalit by a parapet and relief busts. The left gable side is completely smooth, the left received decorative elements from the later addition. A balcony jumps back on the eaves line above a two-storey bay window. The businessman Eduard Schöner had structural changes carried out. The Art Nouveau interior from 1885 has largely been preserved, while some stained glass windows from this period were removed during the most recent repairs. | |
Goethestrasse 9 (demolished) |
[The two-storey residential and warehouse was built in 1911 as a massive plastered building with a gable roof in the Baroque style of the homeland instead of a garden house for the court butcher Emil Köhler. It was characterized by a mansard roof and built-in garage, originally an ice cellar and stables. A former wash house was attached. In August 2010 the building was entered in the list of monuments. In June 2012 the demolition for a new district development followed.] | |
Goethestrasse 11 | In 1861 Paul Gehrlicher built this neo-Gothic hipped roof corner house at the confluence of Casimirstrasse and Goethestrasse , which Georg Meyer added in 1896 . A barn had stood there since 1684, later a residential building that was demolished in 1861. Two side towers next to the dwelling and two dormer windows frame the front. The roof is decorated with pointed helmets, weather vanes and wrought iron decorations. The Diakonisches Hilfswerk has been running workshops for the disabled there and in the adjoining ground floor buildings since 1945. The two-story gabled roof house displays its main facade to Casimir street a Eckzwerchhaus without buttress. The sloping corner at the mouth of the road is a box bay on consoles, above which two dormers with curved tent roofs complete the element. The facade is divided by pilasters around single and double windows. The left biaxial gable side closes off a stepped gable field. | |
Goethestrasse 13 | In 1874, Hermann Kühn built this neo-Gothic corner house, which is adorned with two risalits and an arbor, on the Königsgarten , named after the weaver Johann Philipp König, who leased the property . The house, made of brick with sandstone framing, stands directly in front of the outer defensive wall of the Ketschenvorstadt . In 1883, Hans Rothbart extended the building for Baron Carl von Stockmar with a terrace on the north side. Simplifying repairs to the war-damaged house, which replaced the original gable roof with regularly stepped dormers with a hipped roof with irregular small dormers, took away its original character. Since then, both risalites on the eaves side are no longer as visually effective despite their corner blocks. The side facade is adorned by an arbor with a tracery parapet, above which a two-story bay window protrudes. The center of the facade is emphasized by groups of three windows and two coats of arms. After renovations in 2003/04, parts of the building house the care ward of a private senior citizens' community. |
Grafengasse
Street | description | photo |
---|---|---|
Grafengasse 50 ° 15 ′ 32.8 ″ N , 10 ° 58 ′ 1.5 ″ E |
The Grafengasse , first mentioned in 1539, leads from the northwestern pavilion of the Ehrenburg at the beginning of the Herrngasse to the north to the Salzmarkt . The name refers to the social class of the lower nobility who have lived as a city residence in the vicinity of the duke since the Ehrenburg was built. The houses on the east side of Grafengasse were demolished in 1826–1828 when the Schloßplatz was built. | |
Grafengasse 1 | There has been evidence of a house here since 1540, which was increased by two floors in 1678 for the clerk Johann Daniel Friede and in the 19th century by another to four floors today. In 1859 the house came into ducal private ownership. From 1862–1867 the ducal building inspector Jacob Lindner lived in this house . A cornice sets off the ground floor at the top. The entrance is offset to the left. The first floor contains larger windows. The facade is dominated by groups of three and two of windows, which are combined on the first and second floors by common roofs. Since the windows on the third floor are located directly under the eaves of the flat gable roof, a half-timbered construction can be assumed. | |
Grafengasse 4 | In 1573 the four-storey eaves side house was first mentioned in the city's house book. In 1608 it was owned by the clerk Conrad Feustling, and in the 18th century by the Christ family. A round arch on the massive ground floor marks the former entrance. A portal with double doors took its place in the early 18th century. Each door leaf is decorated with a rosette frieze with a door pull. Above the ground floor, the house is built in half-timbered construction, whereby two construction phases can be recognized. The first and second floors date from 1608, the third floor from 1717. Originally the residential and commercial building had a wooden staircase at the rear with a spiral staircase and an open gallery. This development was demolished in 1952. In the shop, joists and central supports from the 17th century have been preserved. | |
Grafengasse 5 | In contrast to No. 4, the three-storey eaves side house, which has not been extended, originates in its core from the 16th and 17th centuries. In 1727 it was bought by the court and consistorial advisor Johann Sebastian Christ, who had it renewed. During this time the half-timbered upper storeys were built, the posts and bars of which create a square field. A dormer sits on the flat gable roof. In 1910 the ground floor windows were enlarged. | |
Grafengasse 6 former department store Monday |
This house, which has been inhabited by court officials since 1603, was given a third floor in 1704. In 1872 the Coburg-Gothaische-Credit Gesellschaft moved in and adapted the premises to the requirements of an administration. The half-timbering that was visible up to then was plastered, the entrance moved from the center to the left and the ground floor rooms were converted into offices, as well as a two-storey box bay on consoles in the neo-renaissance style. In 1952 there were again major changes. The top floor was expanded and a ground floor connection was created with the rear building at Salzmarkt 5 . The ground floor became a showroom for the Patrizier department store , which later became the Montag department store and has now been closed. A large shop window and a second door instead of three windows were installed on the right-hand side. In 1975, the ground floor was redesigned and brought a second shop entrance and a natural stone plinth. | |
Grafengasse 6 | see salt market 5 | |
Grafengasse 7 | This courtyard has been separating the salt market from the end of Grafengasse since the 13th century . The city wall ran here and the property is cut accordingly. A permanent house with a shop was built here at the end of the 18th and beginning of the 19th century and changed in 1868 by Georg Meyer on behalf of pastry chef Rudolf Carl Zug to convert the shop on the ground floor into an apartment and the front door on the facade facing the Salzmarkt and to remove the steps leading to the shop, to create a parapet and to divide the former shop windows with pilasters. In 1911 Georg Kempf, who also built a shop again, redesigned it in the historicist manner with smooth plastered upper floors. The freestanding main building with three to four window axes is joined by two eaves side buildings in plastered half-timbered constructions on a massive ground floor from the 17th or 18th century, projecting into the Grafengasse street, the front of which is shaped by the renovations of 1868 and 1911 with pilasters. In 1730 the old house had two floors and an inner courtyard with now closed wooden balconies. |
Great Johannisgasse
Street | description | photo |
---|---|---|
Große Johannisgasse 50 ° 15 ′ 33 ″ N , 10 ° 57 ′ 56.7 ″ E |
The existence of a bathing room with reference to John the Baptist in the house at Kleine Johannisgasse 6 gave the Große Johannisgasse its name. It leads in a slight curve from Spitalgasse to the east to Theatergasse . | |
Grosse Johannisgasse 3 | The three-storey corner house with a hipped roof belonged to Johann Philipp Breithaupt in 1730. The property on which it stands has been built on with a residential house since 1466. From 1853 to 1854 and from 1864 to 1866 it was used by the girls' high school in Alexandrinum . The house, which had been plastered up until then, was renovated in 1895, with the timber-framing being exposed and renewed, as was the roof. Five axes on the gable side and eight on the eaves side determine the appearance of the building with a sandstone base, which is accessed from the right corner of the front side. There is a shop in the left corner of the ground floor. Philipp Carl Gotthold Karche was born in this house in 1780. The city archivist, local researcher and schoolmaster lived here until 1811 and then moved to Große Johannisgasse 6 . | |
Grosse Johannisgasse 4 | House development on this property is mentioned for the first time in 1730, as its owner Johann Georg Schilling is named. The current appearance of the then three-storey hipped roof house was created in 1898 when the ground floor was converted into a shop by Georg Meyer . The court instrument maker Georg Hofmann ran the shop with wide shop windows and a central entrance. Five even window axes in the plastered framework of the upper floors structure the facade. A rear building added in 1705 is connected to the main house by a two-storey wooden balcony. This outbuilding and the top floor were converted into small apartments in 1994. | |
Große Johannisgasse 5 memorial plaque by Christian Zizmann |
In 1832 Christian Zizmann (1789–1847) took over this house and had the facade changed immediately. On the occasion of his 100th birthday, the art and trade association had a memorial plaque attached to the house in 1890, honoring Zizmann's special social achievements. The former auditor in the government chancellery and rentmaster, who was appointed chamber councilor in 1846, founded the trade widow's office in 1832. | |
Große Johannisgasse 6 memorial plaque by Philipp CG Karche |
This house originally dates from the 15th century and was rebuilt in 1703 by Heinrich Christoph Hofmann. At that time it already consisted of three floors with four rooms, a shop and a cellar. The dental technician Heinrich Borneff had the eaves gable-roof house rebuilt in 1874 by master builder Friedrich Francke. The ground floor was fundamentally changed in that a second shop was moved from the living room, the previously external basement exit to the inside and a new gateway to the courtyard was created in its place. Court carpenter Georg König also erected a new rear building with four floors. The facade of the rear building line of the neighboring armory projects, has since 1928 five uniform window axes above a shop fitted with a central entrance and two large display windows. During this time, the attic was also prepared for residential purposes and received a two-axis dormer. The framework of the upper floors is plastered. In 1946 the shop window position on the ground floor was changed again. Philipp Carl Gotthold Karche, Coburg city archivist, schoolmaster and local history researcher lived in this house from 1811 until his death in 1854. A plaque installed in 1930 on the occasion of his 150th birthday commemorates him. The painter Karl Friedrich Borneff lived and worked for a long time on the four floors of the rear building. |
Gustav-Freytag-Weg

Gustav-Freytag-Weg 50 ° 15 ′ 51.2 ″ N , 10 ° 58 ′ 33.6 ″ E |
From the Untere Klinge , past the northern arm , first as a stairway and then as a steep road, the Gustav-Freytag-Weg leads to the north side of the fortress . In 1916, on the occasion of his hundredth birthday, the path was named after Gustav Freytag, who, as a well-read poet of his time, was friends with Duke Ernst II and often stayed in Coburg and at Callenberg Castle . The path leads uphill in the upper part as a driveway and parallel to it as a hiking trail along the wooded fortress slope. | |
Gustav-Freytag-Weg no. Gustav-Freytag-Brunnen and Wolfsbrunnen |
As early as 1909, the Hahnweg community had a small mountain spring built on the hiking trail that runs parallel to the road north of the fortress. A boulder with Freytag's bronze relief, designed by an unknown artist, serves as a fountain stick and poet's memorial. In 1979/80 the fountain and its surroundings were renovated. A much older fountain (18th century?), Which is equipped with a well room made of sandstone blocks, is located northeast of the Gustav Freytag fountain. It is the spring called Wolfbrunnen , which fed the pond in the former Herrengarten at the branch to Bergstrasse. | |
Gustav-Freytag-Weg 14 Villa Borneff |
Franz Obenauf had a villa with a hipped roof and a gabled staircase project built for Ida Borneff in 1932 . A garden shed had stood on the property since 1878. The house standing on the slope is dominated by a large triangular gable with a coat of arms above the risalits dividing the three-axis eaves-side front and two large lattice windows on the upper floor. In 2002/03 the windows were renewed, the attic was expanded and triangular dormer windows were installed. | |
Gustav-Freytag-Weg 17 | Only a garden house was allowed to be built on the originally over 14,000 m² hillside property, which, according to tradition, has been lent by the Coburg dukes to deserving courtiers as a pleasure garden since the end of the Thirty Years' War . The garden house, which has stood there since 1723 and was built by Johann Appel, received the villa of the manufacturer Max Müller as a neighbor in 1935. The two-storey garden house is accessible via a slope-side front staircase. At that time, the tent roof was still covered with hollow tiles, which had to give way to clay pans after a change of ownership in 1970. At the same time, the house was given a wooden arbor and treetops facing the valley in front of it to the north, which no longer allow the original narrow Tuscan pillared porch on the ground floor to come into its own. | |
Gustav-Freytag-Weg 18 | The single-storey house with a square floor plan was built by Ferdinand Meyer in 1912. In 2010 the plastered hipped roof building was added to the list of monuments. | |
Gustav-Freytag-Weg 23 | Carl Kleemann drafted the building application plans for the villa, but he was unable to implement them until his death in 1902. Building on Kleemann's preliminary planning, the city master builder Max Böhme then built the high-gable, picturesque half-timbered villa as his own home in 1904. While the basement and ground floor of the gable roof building consist of massive walls, the carved half-timbered construction of the upper floor with three-axis branch gables protrudes strongly on the south-western side, next to it a veranda. Sun and air, light and life are written in Gothic letters on the threshold beam for the program of the house. The front of the entrance facing the street is dominated by a five-sided stair tower, the upper floor and top of which are slated. A round arch portal and similar windows open the porch. From the beginning, a large Florian picture by Max Brückner adorns the front of the tower. The picture is protected laterally by metal sheets and from above by a gothic three-mountain sheet metal roof. The house, which had been divided into three parts by Boehme's daughters, was given back its original layout in 1980–1988 by the renovation initiated by the ducal family. The interior has been beautifully restored, as has the exterior. Detailed Art Nouveau forms characterize the hall and stairwell, in which the stringer is designed as a bench with dorsal cover . Numerous colored glazing, door and mirror frames, stucco decor as a superaport motif in the living room with a painted wooden field ceiling and the stucco ceiling in the dining room complete the Art Nouveau interior. | |
Gustav-Freytag-Weg 24 | The hipped roof of this small, single-storey summer house is traditionally covered with hollow tiles. Flat segment arches span window and door openings. A tall chimney rises up in one corner, marking the location of the fireplace inside. The house with its square floor plan dates from the 18th or 19th century. A total of six houses of this type have been preserved in Coburg (see also: Adamiberg 6, Eupenstrasse at No. 94, Floßstegstrasse 5, Obere Klinge 4, Seifartshofstrasse 22) | |
Gustav-Freytag-Weg 25 | Under a mound of earth and set back a little from the road, there is a water reservoir that was given a neo-Renaissance portal in 1891. As a stylistic element, there is above all a strong bosswork . The arched portal closes at the top with an elaborately crafted wedge stone, which merges directly into the straight end framework, on which a volute-supported aedicula is attached. Above it is a triangular gable showing the Moor's coat of arms with the year. To the side of this, balls rest on the ends of the end beam. The small square that extends in front of the portal is framed by stepped cheeks. |

Gymnasiumsgasse 50 ° 15 ′ 24.9 ″ N , 10 ° 57 ′ 55.8 ″ E |
The alley leading from the churchyard to the Steinweglein was called Kleines Kirchgäßlein until the high school Casimirianum was built in 1605 . The name Gymnasiumsgasse has been in use since 1605 . | |
Gymnasiumsgasse 1 | Two plastered half-timbered storeys rise above the massive ground floor of the three-storey, eaves-mounted, six-axis gable-roof house. The apartment building in its current presentation is the result of frequent additions and conversions that are tied to the respective purpose. The first property known here in a document from 1397 was a council fiefdom with brewing rights. Over time, counts , mayors and vicarages lived here, and finally Peter Sengelaub , builder and court painter of Duke Johann Casimir , from 1597 to 1622 . In 1730 the old house with a small cellar belonged to the tailor Johann Popp. The back building was rebuilt for the cook Jacob Eckardt and the main house received a vaulted cellar and an entrance hall. In 1865 the trimmers Heinrich Mayfeld commissioned master builder Georg Meyer with the expansion of the left rear building, into which in 1881 a bakery of the master baker and purveyor Hermann Schumann was moved. The shop in the front building was expanded in 1902 and 1927 and in 1939 a modern steam oven was installed in the north wing building instead of the old wood stove. As early as 1919, the roof of the house had dormer windows and was converted for residential purposes. | |
Gymnasiumsgasse 2 Casimirianum |
Opposite the Morizkirche , on the corner plot of the Neugasse , the Ratskornhaus , built in 1496 as a granary , stood until 1601 . Duke Johann Casimir had it torn down and by 1605 Nikolaus Bergner and Peter Sengelaub, who lived in house number 1 opposite, built a high school with a convictorium (boarding school), which was later to be expanded into a university. It was not until 1803 that it was converted into a grammar school and was given the name Casimirianum grammar school . For Bergner it was the second of his three magnificent buildings in Coburg. The construction of the government chancellery was just completed, that of the armory was still to follow. The two-storey gable roof building in the Renaissance style is determined by a row of six dwelling houses with richly structured tail gables and a pyramid each as a pointed end. Both three-storey gable sides are very ornate with volute braces and five pyramids each on the ends of the storeys. The eight to three window axes are designed as large windows with central mullions on the upper floors; the central windows are only simple on the gable ends. The ground floor is divided in two by a round arched portal in the middle, which consists of overlapping round bars and whose entablature with architrave, bulge and cornice rests on consoles. To the left of this gate there is an entrance portal with a low round arch supported by laced leaf volute consoles, which is closed by a cornice with an egg stick and tooth cut. On the north-east corner, facing the church, there is a stone figure of the grammar school founder, Duke Johann Casimir, renovated in 1638 by Veit Dümpel . Originally the gable side to the right of the figure was painted with pictures of famous scientists. On the back there is the polygonal stair tower with a stone spiral staircase, onion dome and lantern , in which the high school bell hangs , rising one and a half stories above the roof ridge . In the auditorium of the high school there are wooden panel pictures with the allegories of the seven virtues. The current high school complex was created through numerous alterations and additions carried out over the course of 400 years, as well as the demolition of surrounding town houses. The last extensions were in 1961 the construction of a gym with a break hall on Neugasse and from 1986 to 1988 another school building with a music room in the direction of Ketschengasse . | |
Gymnasiumsgasse 3 Augustinerhaus |
The original building, which was built in 1395, served as a dormitory for the Augustinian hermits until 1520 and was converted into the residence of the first director of the Casimirianum , D. Andreas Libavius, in 1611 . After his death it became the city quarter of noblemen and court servants until it came into the possession of the lawyer Johann Casimir Repert in 1730. At that time it was a three-story house with a central building, five rooms, a cellar and a stable. Wagon master Johann Georg Langbein acquired the property in 1837 and had a locksmith's workshop built into the rear building. In 1911 the sculptor Max Beyersdorf bought the house, had it added and converted the workshop into his studio. Seven window axes, a waterfall cornice separating the ground floor and upper floor, the grooved eaves, a two-axis dormer and, last but not least, a portal with two paneled wings give the three-story house the impression of noble nonchalance. The half-timbered inner courtyard was made smaller in the 19th century with additions and fixtures. | |
Gymnasiumsgasse 5 Jean-Paul-Haus |
This property has been built on since 1349. In the 15th century a back building, which as a former branch of the created behind the front building Lower convent of beguines applies. After 1605 a side wing was added to the building and the front building was largely rebuilt before 1700 under the then owner Johann Georg Ziegenspeck. From 1700 the property belonged to the doctor Dr. Andreas Elias Büchner and is described as a half new, half old building of 3 floors with 8 rooms, 2 vaults, 2 cellars and one stable . In 1820, after another change of ownership, the rear building was added in the adjoining kennel garden and the house was used as a rental residence. The poet Jean Paul lived here in 1803 and 1804. A plaque on the facade reminds of him. In 1854/55, government councilor Hermann Rose had the upper floors widened to the south and three arched windows were installed on the ground floor, behind which there was a series of vaulted cells of the beguines. The three-storey facade is made entirely of sandstone blocks, the gable roof is provided with a dormer window. Two side and one central pilasters, which sit on squat plinths in the middle of the ground floor, divide the facade into two halves, in the right of which there is a courtyard entrance under a profiled round arch with a scrollwork apex. The left half of the ground floor also has an identical round arch, but the passage of which has been walled up and provided with a rectangular window. From the house garden, which is hidden away, there is a beautiful view of the Moriz Church and the part of the inner city fortification that still exists. On the narrow side facing east, a large round arch leads to the basement with a barrel vault made of sandstone blocks. In 1977 the house came into the possession of the United Coburg Savings Banks, which had eleven apartments built. | |
Gymnasiumsgasse 5 | see attachment below | |
Gymnasiumsgasse 7 | The three-storey half-hipped mansard roof is dated 1803, but its core dates from the 17th century. 1730 still owned by the bookbinder Lorenz Rebetka, the building has 1,803 basic renovation and partially new buildings by Johann Georg Fahlenberg, the former ducal Kammerlakaien . The entrance door, framed by pilaster strips and a lintel cornice, was moved to the south side and the facade was given its current appearance, but at that time with exposed half-timbering on the upper floors. Christian Türk, teacher at the Casimirianum and the new owner of the house, had the basement enlarged by Carl Kleemann in 1901 and the entrance relocated again, and in 1902 by Tobias Frommann the damaged pavilion on the city wall was renewed. In 1911, a two-story veranda was finally built on the south side of the house. |
