(map)
1908 (auxiliary system), 1908 (fountain) Fountain commemorating the consecration of the New Town Hall on October 7, 1905 (shell limestone and cast bronze); Popularly designed ornamental fountain made of shell limestone and bronze elements, installation in memory of the consecration of the New Town Hall on October 7, 1905, design: Georg Wrba, local historical and artistic significance monument text The design for the new building of the town hall included an ornamental fountain in 1899 as an urban accent on the re-entrant Corner at Burgplatz, which was not carried out for financial reasons. In 1906 citizens of Leipzig offered the financing. The costs for the foundation and for the water supply were borne by municipal foundation funds (Großmann Foundation, Natalie Beuth Foundation, Grassi Foundation). The order for the design and sculptural execution went to the sculptor Georg Wrba (Dresden), who had already worked on the sculptural design of the New Town Hall under Hugo Licht. The bronze casting was done by the Dresden company Milde & Co. The foundation was created by the cement construction business Rudolph Wolle. The fountain was unveiled on October 7, 1908 on the occasion of the third anniversary of the inauguration of the New Town Hall. In 1980 the well was switched off, renovated and put back into operation in 1991. In connection with the construction of an underground car park under Burgplatz, the temporary dismantling took place in 1995–1999, combined with a fundamental renovation in terms of monument preservation. The stone elements are made of shell limestone, which was also used in the construction of the New Town Hall. The three-dimensional ornaments (33 sculptures based on 26 models) and the crowning group are cast bronze. The total height of the well is 6.73 m. The octagonal fountain basin stands on a single-level base. The pool walls are provided with mirrors. In the middle of the basin, a baluster-shaped, curved column rises on the massive, square well, which tapers to an octagon in the upper third. Bronze tondi with relief portraits in half-profile are attached to three sides of the well. They show the Lord Mayors Bruno Tröndlin (east side - all round: DR. BRUNO TRÖDLIN) and Otto Georgi (north side - all round: DR.OTTO GEORGI) as well as the city planning director Hugo Licht (south side - all round: DR. HUGO LICHT). On the reverse a medallion with the inscription: ZUR / REMINDER / AN DIE / INAUGURATION OF / NEW TOWN HALL / ON / 7TH OCTOBER / 1905. The upper octagonal part of the well is surrounded by a bronze ring, which consists of pairs of figures based on German fairy tales that used to emit 140 water jets: "Hans my hedgehog", "Thumbling", "Hansel and Gretel", "Snow White", "The golden roebuck", "Swinigel and Hase", "The Two Brothers", "The Devil's Russian Brother". Cartridges made of rams' heads and various animals are arranged between the figures. On the column capital adorned with decorative ornamentation (egg stick, checkerboard cuboid) four water-spraying, bronze ram heads as consoles of the square cover plate, which carries the larger than life bronze figure of a flute player (2.28 mh). This is shown in a forward step position with an unclothed, athletic upper body. His shirt slipped off. He wears knee-free pants and sturdy shoes. Three children and two dogs are playing at his feet. The town hall fountain is an attractively designed fountain system that gives the view of the New Town Hall on Burgplatz an additional accent and serves to enhance the urban space. With the content-related references to the popular treasure trove of legends and fairy tales at the beginning of the 20th century, it is clearly recognizable as the work of the time it was created. Georg Wrba, who is one of the well-known sculptors of the 20th century and who was particularly active and experienced in applied sculpture, ensured a high-quality implementation of the building project, whereby his previous participation in the town hall building certainly had a beneficial effect. Due to the conditions in which it was created and its artistic characteristics, the object acquires local historical and artistic importance. LfD / 2017 09298231

Old Bach monument Dittrichring (in front of No. 6)
(map)
1843 (monument) Richly designed sandstone monument with portrait bust and reliefs, in memory of the composer and Thomaskantor Johann Sebastian Bach (1685–1750), initiator and donor of the Bach monument, the composer and Gewandhaus Kapellmeister Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy was of personal, musical, cultural and art historical and artistic importance The monument, completed in December 1842 and inaugurated on April 23, 1843, is the world's first for the Leipzig Thomaskantor Johann Sebastian Bach. The monument was created exclusively at the suggestion and instigation of Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, who campaigned for the rediscovery and maintenance of Bach's music. Mendelssohn organized concerts to finance the monument. He received support for his project from Robert Schumann. Mendelssohn took care of the artistic execution down to the last detail. The city only took on the preparation of the monument site, including the foundations. Mendelssohn had his painter friend Eduard Bendemann made the design for the monument in Dresden. The painter Julius Hübner and the sculptor Ernst Rietschel, who, like Bendemann, taught at the Dresden Art Academy, were involved in an advisory capacity. The artistic and practical realization was then the sole responsibility of Julius Huebner, to whom Mendelssohn had turned after Eduard Bendemann's sick leave. The execution was entrusted to the stonemason Friedrich Moritz Hiller in Dresden-Antonstadt on Huebner's recommendation. The figurative representations were made by the sculptor Hermann Knaur in Leipzig, a student of Ernst Rietschel. For the composer's bust, Knaur apparently followed the Bach portrait painted by Elias Gottlob Haußmann in 1746 (at that time owned by the Thomas School). The suggestion for the lattice framing of the monument came from City Councilor Fleischer, who was in charge of the monument issue on the part of the council. Mendelssohn paid 115 thalers for the bars alone. A site not far from where the composer lived and worked was chosen as the monument site. It was initially located in the "garden behind the Thomas School" and later became part of the public promenade. Together with the monument to Johann Adam Hiller from 1832, the Bach monument in front of the west side of the St. Thomas Church, which was still being built at the time, formed a kind of grove of honor in Leipzig's musical history, which later only found an indirect addition through the New Bach Monument on St. Thomas Church Courtyard (1908) . In connection with redesigning measures in the area of ​​the promenade, the Bach monument was moved a little southwards to its present location in 1888 and rotated 180 degrees. With the demolition of the old Thomas School in 1902, the monument lost one of its essential authentic reference points. 1994 restoration of the lattice frame 1994, 2000 renovation of the monument area. The approximately three-and-a-half-meter-high statue made of Pirna sandstone, including the ornamental wrought-iron lattice frame, is a detailed combination of architectural elements with elements of decorative and figurative sculpture. It has a clear three-part structure: a smooth octagonal base over two steps, above it a higher central part formed from bundled and free-standing columns, as a conclusion to rich tabernacle-like top with a distinctive cross roof and gothic finial. In the main view facing north today, the essay shows the somewhat larger than life, almost fully plastic bust of musician, labeled: "JS Bach". On the other sides of the essay there are reliefs that depict various areas of Bach's work in figure scenes with long-clad female winged creatures (genii): performing artist, especially organist (east side), composer, especially for church music (south side) and teacher and cantor ( West side). The monument site is covered with small paving and is enclosed by an ornamental grille. The old Bach monument is an important testimony to the culture of remembrance of the 19th century. Its connection between the Thomaskantor Bach and the Gewandhauskapellmeister Mendelssohn makes it a world-class monument. It refers both to Bach's work in Leipzig and to Mendelssohn's outstanding contribution to the rediscovery and re-performance of Bach's works, and thus it is of great personal and musical history. From an art-historical and artistic point of view, it is relevant to both the development of the personal monument and the activities of the artists involved.

1906 (fountain) & 1965 (auxiliary system) with two-step curved substructure, middle section and two wings; designed in the form of a wall fountain, natural stone and bronze elements, three-part structure, in the center a grotto niche with a group of figures, to the side of the grotto wall pieces with benches, as visual artistic equipment an integral part of the park area of ​​the promenade ring, artistically and art-historically significant monument text The fountain, which was inaugurated in 1906, was funded by the Financed by the Municipal Art Fund. The Leipzig sculptor Josef Mágr (1861–1924) was responsible for the design. The bronze was cast by Brückner and Noack, the keystone was made by the sculptor Schliemann. The stone masonry was done by Riedel und Keller. In 1907 master locksmith Hermann Pfeifer made a protective and decorative grille, required by the forest and plant deputation. 1923 During the Second World War, the bronze parts, which had previously been stored in a museum for reasons of protection, were melted down as a metal donation. In 1965, the Leipzig artists Elfriede Ducke (1925–2015) and Hanna Studnitzka (1917–2006) recreated the two children's figures with the duck and the two reliefs based on the historical original. 1996 Fountain reconstruction in the course of the renovation of the ring green (original design by Horticultural Director Carl Hampel). The fountain system consists of a 10 m wide wall construction in shell limestone standing on a two-tiered base, in the middle of which there is an arched, cave-like niche (height approx. 4 m) with a fountain basin and a group of figures. On the side wall pieces there are stone benches, which are secured to the niche with wrought iron protective grids. The architecture of the fountain is leaning against the natural embankment and integrated into the landscaping of the green area of ​​the promenade ring. In the semicircular fountain basin lies a base stone with the life-size figures of Gretel kneeling to face a duck and Hansel, who is holding his sister's shoulder. The apex of the grotto is a keystone with a relief of the witch, above a raven. The wall of the grotto niche is decorated with reliefs of animal heads and mythical creatures. Above the stone benches on the side walls, rectangular bronze reliefs are set in: on the left the lost children find the gnawing house, on the right their return to their parents. Stylized gingerbreads decorate the top of the outer pillars. The fountain is a high-quality example of the design of a public green zone with visual artistic elements in the sense of a total work of art. The popular design refers to the world of fairy tales and legends that was popular around the turn of the century. It is also a testimony to the work of Josef Mágr, who was one of the most important representatives of Art Nouveau in Leipzig and who mainly worked in the field of architectural sculpture. Due to the reconstruction in the 1960s, it also stands for the work of the two Leipzig artists Elfriede Ducke and Hanna Studnitzka, who played a notable role in Leipzig sculpture. For these reasons, the object is a cultural monument of artistic and art historical importance. LfD / 2017 09298253

(map)
re. 1892 (monument) Erected in memory of the first directors of the Ratsfreischule, granite and bronze, part of the design of the promenade ring, of local, cultural, personal and artistic significance Monument text The Plato-Dolz monument was honored in 1892 on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the Ratsfreischule Leipzig the first directors of the Ratsfreischule Karl Gottlieb Plato and Johann Christian Dolz. The Ratsfreischule was the first municipal, tuition-free elementary school in Leipzig. Initially, children of poor parents were taught here. The initiative to found the school came from Mayor Carl Wilhelm Müller and Superintendent Johann Georg Rosenmüller. The erection of the memorial for the anniversary was financed by the former students. The sculptor Hermann Knaur (1811–1872), once a student at the Ratsfreischule, and the architect Georg Weidenbach were responsible for the design. Since Knaur died in 1872, the construction of the monument had obviously been planned and in preparation for some time. The monument is shaped like a three-sided obelisk made of red granite that rises above a pedestal. On a bronze intermediate piece, portrait medallions of the directors Plato and Dolz can be seen or the inscription on the occasion of the monument setting can be read, surrounded by renaissance jewelery forms. The capital-like crowning of the monument is also made of bronze, but in contrast to the intermediate piece tends more towards the neo-baroque. The monument is included in the green design of the promenade ring. With its reminder function of the history of the Ratsfreischule and its first directors, the monument embodies a testimony to the local and personal history. It also documents the monument culture at the end of the 19th century and refers to the work of the sculptor Hermann Knaur, who played an important role in the sculpture and monument creation of Leipzig in the 19th century.

1875–1876 (residential building) Historic plastered building with stucco and sandstone decorations, striking corner tower to emphasize the location that characterizes the street scene, architect: Arwed Roßbach, significance in terms of building history, building art and the history of the site, monument text June 11, 1875 Building application by building contractor Franz Traugott Anton Schauer. The architect Arwed Rossbach (Bauer & Rossbach) provided the drafts for the building project. October 16, 1876 Revision of the completed building. Renovation work in the following period mainly affected the shops on the ground floor. In addition, there were occasional divisions of apartments in the years of the GDR. Comprehensive renovation in 1993, since then mainly used as a commercial building. Four-and-a-half-story corner building with a plan in the form of a dragon square, built in brickwork, plastered, parts of the facade decoration made of stucco and sandstone. Inside a courtyard that takes up the building's layout. A round corner tower is inserted between the obtuse-angled facades on Dittrichring and Schulstrasse, which effectively underlines the building's prominent urban position. The facades are designed the same. The ground floor and the entrance hall - combined by rusticated pillars - form the base zone, which appears strongly open with shop windows and house and shop entrances. The first and second floors rise above a cornice and are also conceived as a unit. A plaster groove covers the central zone. Their rectangular windows with finely profiled frames. In addition, to emphasize the center of each facade, an oriel extending over both floors is adorned with renaissance grotesques, and on top of the oriels balconies for the III. First floor. This is clearly raised with arched windows and pilasters, and a strong cornice with a tooth cut also contributes to this. A cornice on consoles closes off the façade at the top. As with some of the neighboring houses, the flat sloping roof is concealed by attics, here with balusters. On the corner tower, which is crowned by a domed roof, the décor gains much in plasticity, and it shows more clearly baroque tendencies than the rest of the facade decoration. The first and second floors are combined here by a column arrangement. French doors on the first floor with segment roofing, the window frames on the second floor with cartouche decorations. On the entablature carried by the columns stand in the III. Upper floor caryatids, which also support an entablature, above blasted gable with cartouche and dating: 1875. The house entrance on Dittrichring is relatively inconspicuous in the shop area of ​​the ground floor and entresol, the house gate is ironed and provided with artistic bars. The house entrance is also a passage to the courtyard. The building has two stairwells, arranged on the main axis of the floor plan. Behind the corner tower is the main staircase on the courtyard side, and in the opposite corner there is a side staircase, probably originally for servants. The upper floors originally contained two apartments each, the main rooms of which faced the street. The courtyard-facing parts of the building accommodated the bedrooms and utility rooms. The round salon in the corner tower belonged to one of the two apartments. During the renovation in 1993, restoration of a historical wall and ceiling design from around 1895 (reconstruction of the first version not possible due to insufficient findings): pilasters with panels, ceiling fields with stucco rosettes, painting in red and green tones, accentuating grotesques. In the stairwell ceiling mirror with piece of flowers in free painting. In the shop or business space of the corner tower bronze figure "Roman Bocciaspieler", 1904, August Kraus (1868–1934, Berlin), loan from the Museum of Fine Arts Leipzig (original location in front of the east front of the museum building on Augustusplatz, installation 1909). The apartment and commercial building built by Arwed Rossbach is one of the most remarkable buildings of its time and type in downtown Leipzig, with particular reference to its urban presence.

1875–1876 (residential building) formerly with ballroom in the courtyard (plastered facade); Historic plastered building in Neo-Renaissance forms, with sandstone and stucco elements, facade decoration largely reconstructed, significance in terms of site development and building history Monument text June 2, 1875 Building application by the architect Ottomar Jummel on his own behalf (or client Dr. A. Trietzschler, July 1, 1875 repeated) , July 29, 1876 building inspection protocol. 1883 Conversion of the ground floor and mezzanine floor to create ancillary rooms, executed by master mason H. Br. Oehlschlegel. From 1905 (?) Hotel "Reichshof". 1932 property of the "Kreisverband Leipzig der Schreber- und Gartenvereine e. V. ”In 1938, due to extensive damage, the facade was renovated to a significant extent, the client“ Stadtgruppe Leipzig der Kleingärtner e. V. “, construction management architect Alfred Uttecht (Leipzig). Building badly damaged in the bombing raid on Dec. 4, 1943. During the GDR period “Central House for Cultural Work Leipzig”. 2004 Renewal of the facade. Four-and-a-half-story brick building with a plastered facade, plus decorative and structural elements in stucco and sandstone (largely lost in the original version), flat saddle roof. There was once a hall in the courtyard that burned down in 1943 and was subsequently removed. The front building and hall were connected by a narrow intermediate building. The ground floor originally opened in the middle with three shop windows of the same size, the arched closed entrances to the side. Already in 1883 the entrance situation changed, since then the middle entrance exists. The structure and decoration of the facade were once noticeably three-dimensional, the newly created historicizing facade design was less powerful in its individual forms. Broad strip of cornice between the ground floor and the entrance hall. The first and second floors, which rise above a strong cornice with a tooth cut, are connected by colossal pilasters. The side axes stand out decisively and open with balcony doors. The floor cornice in the back of the central area creates a certain balance to the verticality of the pilaster structure. The pilasters carry a bilge-like, again clearly three-dimensional cornice, which forms the dividing line to the third floor. This also has balcony doors in the outer axes, which were once framed by Hermen pilasters and, like the other balcony doors, were protected with elaborate bars. The remaining windows on the third floor have rounded arches, originally enriched with festoons. Above the cornice, which with its side projections follows the facade profile, originally a flat gable roof, which has now been replaced by a disfiguring roof extension. The ground floor, courtyard buildings and cellars initially served as a restaurant. The restaurant operator lived in the Entresol. The upper floors probably contained two apartments each. The later use as a hotel and then as an office building brought some changes inside. Today the building contains apartments and business premises again. Despite the eventful history of the building, some interior features from the early days have been preserved: stucco decoration and decorative tiles in the entrance area, decorative painting in the entrance area and in the stairwell, wooden stairs, apartment entrance doors.
