In 1376 Margrave Rudolf III bought. von Hachberg-Sausenberg in the Basel Spiegelgasse (today Augustinergasse) the house ze Strasburg (Augustinerhof) and in 1379 the house ze Arberg (Kleiner Markgräflerhof) from Werner and Adelberg von Bärenfels . The houses remained in their possession until the end of the Hachberg-Sausenberg house and then passed to the Baden margrave Christoph . His son, Margrave Ernst , sold the property to the Artistic Faculty of the University of Basel in 1522 .

In 1998 Rainer Bartels bought the property and since 2005 it has belonged to the Bartels Foundation . "Up to 4 studios are made available free of charge to promote contemporary art by awarding grants to artists."

Second Markgräflerhof

In 1639, with Friedrich V , a margrave from Baden acquired a house in Basel, the Hagenbachschen Hof am Rheinsprung (Rheinsprung 24 and Martinsgasse 9-15), which remained in margravial possession until 1686 and was also called the Alte Markgräflerhof .

Burgvogtei - People's House

In 1686 the margraves bought the former courtyard of the Wettingen monastery , the Burgvogtei house, in Kleinbasler Rebgasse . After the margravial offices housed there needed a safe place to stay due to the destruction of Rötteln Castle in 1678 , the Oberamt and the Burgvogtei with the court cooperage were housed here until 1697. The building remained in the possession of the margraves until 1798.
